Forums - Microsoft - Windows 7 Commercial Featuring Sony

Anyone see the Windows 7 commercial where all the electronics in the house are Sony? There were Sony laptops and Sony televisions, probably other devices that I didn't notice.

Maybe they aren't quite the rivals we thought they were.



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

Blu-Ray!!



Sony and Microsoft are very close business partners, this whole console war thing really isn't all that people would like you to think it is. There was a PC commercial not all too long ago with Microsoft advertising a Sony laptop with Blu-Ray.



Isn't that the one where the guy is talking about being able to have his content on all the computers in the house?

There isn't anything wrong with it, but I would agree that it's humurous that all the computers in the house arel Sony computers.

well this is different part of both the MS and Sony corps. I doubt MS and Sony are bashing heads like PS3 and 360 fanboys. I don't own a Sony computer, but I don't tihnk they have their own software for their computers. I think MS only competition's in this field is Apple and their Mac computers



Yeah nothing wrong with that.

MS and Sony are best friends in the PC business. In the console business, they are business rivals, but that's really it. Fanboys tend to take things to a personal level when in reality Kaz Hirai and Aaron Greenburg would go out for some drinks.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Sony Computer Entertainment and Microsoft Entertainment and Devices Division are rivals because of the console gaming business, and it's natural for them to act like they're in a war, and also having fans & fanboys talking about it all the time benefits both of them...

Aside from that Sony and Microsoft are very close business partners, especially in the PC department...



I think you are referring to this commercial...
