Actually Bill was telling the workd to kiss his arse because no matter the crappy product microsoft puts out, fan boys, midgets, sienfield, turtle wangs, and of coarse idiots will buy while he gets closer to owning mars. Hell he probably pirates his own stuff just to save money. What a World. I will stop talking now before my xp gets blacklisted I Love You Bill

#19 – You can’t have Micheal Richards in an ad, unless you want to be known as racists. A sad but real fact. Even though he only screwed up once, he screwed up badly so nobody will risk touching him. Even Seinfeld cut him loose after his “no really Mike’s a great guy” news confrence 2 days after the incident.

where the hell is “Redwood”

Microsoft is in Redmond, actually on the cusp of the Overlake district in Bellevue.

Actually, the message is:

“See? We can make crappy ads too!”

Microsoft is in Redmond. There is no actual Redwood, Washington. I thought everyone knew that. Redmond, not Redwood.

I haven’t seen the commercial, but from reading the description, the message I’d get from it is that Gates (and by extension, Microsoft) doesn’t have a clue what their doing and that the average person knows how to make better choices than them.

Whats the ad suppose to mean? That Microsoft has to much money on its hands… I mean 1 minute and 30 seconds of boringness. Oh yeah it was an ad for Vista..I get it now.

Yeah, stupid ad, funny though how he has his old police mugshot on his card.
