A Really Awful Microsoft Music Video

All I can say is that the Boss is going to be pissed.

I like how it ends with “our ecosystem rocks!” I kept looking for a hint of winking irony, but I didn’t see any. Thanks to Lee for the linkage.

UPDATE: A Microsoft representative says that it’s a spoof, though intended for an internal audience. That may be why there’s no apparent indicators of irony (an important aspect of satire, I think)–the target audience would recognize it for what it was.

    Gobbledy-goop tech talk and stooping-low-desperation you’d never see from Apple. Well, some of their Mac vs PC ads were a little over the top but at least they were funny and in good taste. And short.

    Those 3 minutes of my life I’ll never get back :P
