http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cX4t5-YpHQThe bits at the end are golden. "Can you believe Microsoft put the launch of Windows in our hands? Are they nuts or what?" I love how they have the black guy, and a hip looking regular dude with the plaid shirt and glasses (who throws up the hang ten at the end). Could've used an Asian, though.

Sorta looks like a modern version of those kitchy 50s-60s junior high films about dating.

They took over an hour to film that. Clock in the background starts at 3:52, ends at 5:13. Lame

This is so bad I almost suspect Apple of having made it as a guerrilla counter-advertising.

No one does clueless quite like Microsoft.

Hahahaha... yeah, I had a similar reaction: "Hey look, Windows 7 is great! Black people, moderately attractive milfs, my mom, AND vaguely hip white dudes can use it!"

Wait a minute, do you think this was intentionally cheesy so more people will spread it around and watch it? That would be some next level shit.

Reminds me of the Magic Bullet. Kind of funny, since Win7 is supposed to be M$'s Silver Bullet.

Possibly, but all it makes me want to do is laugh at M$ even harder every time I watch it.
