Well even if Windows 7 is good (and by that I mean it does what I've paid it to do) I DEFINITELY won't be paying for it. I allready paid for Vista and have been regretting it ever since. In short; Microsoft screwed me.

 

 The first ad was funny:)

Microsoft screwed a lot of people over with Vista. But everyone is saying that W7 is what Vista should have been. I really haven't heard any complaints about W7 yet, so it might be worth the buy.

Getting over the crap with the Digital River student offer was the hardest part.

Once the consumer goes into best buy and sees a 300$ Laptop and a 1000$ macbook (same specs) I assume they will make the correct choice.



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

I'm sick of this ad campaign by Apple.. Sure it was cute, 3 years ago. But now, it just reeks of smugness and douchebaggery.

How many times has Apple upgraded their OS?

And these ads, it's just free advertising for Microsoft and really aren't all that funny anymore.

And? Snow-Leapard is a VERY GOOD os. Since the upgrade from Leapard to Snow-Leapard is only $20 why complain?

fun adds, it's been a smart and successful campaign.

That reminds me, I need to drop two hundred bucks to upgrade from tiger to Leopard. Except it's SnowLeopard now, since Leopard apparently had some problems with it.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
