The company executives probably wanted this video to go viral, which, judging by the view count it has not. It barely has a few hundred views as of this writing. Windows XP, on the other hand, is regularly shedding users, and the number of computers that are powered by the retired operating system is steadily going down, according to all market research firms.]]>

  • Are these stupid ads really needed at this point? If anything, it just seems like a slap in XP users’ face, which isn’t the message Microsoft should want to have conveyed.

  • Although I like Windows XP and Windows 7, they just equate to work for me. Windows 98 and Dos 6.0 will always have a soft spot in my heart as they equate with playing games as a kid. We always hear that kids now are so smart with tech. But make them use Dos as we did as kids and suddenly they aren’t so smart.

  • “and the fan favorite operating system..” how am I to understand this? It is the favorite OS of one fan? There is a fan that is considered “The fan”? Sorry but I have to ask.
