So you're saying that twelve is not less than twenty?
I look forward to reading your CP article on this.
So that I can pick holes in the grammar and word usage!

No, never said that, and never even suggested it.

That's why Britain has bayonet light bulbs -- to foil the evil machines, when they turn on us.

That could still be done with a bayonet bulb, it would have to be a much bigger more powerful drone though.

Uhm, it's an ad for their new desktop system. How else would you have them release a new product? Silently without announcements? Just shows up in Best Buy one fine morning?

Its their adds that make me puke. The single best product they ever produced is Windbg, and yet it is never advertised.

Let me !analyze -v this.

Are you suggesting that Microsoft advertise Windbg on TV? No wonder you're not a marketing guru.
This is like complaining that Nissan should not advertise their Altima cars, but instead advertise about VQ36DE, because it's their best "product". You don't walk to a Nissan dealer and ask to buy a VQ series engine, do you?
Hint: One thing is a mainstream commercial product that generates revenue (a meaningful thing to advertise), and another is a low level utility.

I'm a PC - Miocrosoft ad[^]
No you aren't, you've got two f***ing legs and breathe air.
Microsoft ads make me want to puke. Point proved.

You can't really blame Microsoft for that PoS; it was a direct response to Apple's Hello, I'm a Mac[^].

And the Surface Dial[^] for those who always wanted a little knob in their life.

Well, I like the sound of saying haptic input device.

You want a haptic knob?
I think I'm going to just turn around and go back the way I came. This won't end well...

Oh cool, something else they ripped off from Apple. Make sure to say Apple sucks too.

Actually, the entire "surface" thing was a Microsoft invention. The all-in-one computer thing was long before Apple.

MS copied that idea from apple iPads

Dude, in all the years I've know you, you never say anything nice. Like, "gee Jeremy, how's your hair? Are the kids you don't have ok?" To answer the question you didn't ask, yes my non-existent kids are doing great. Thanks for not asking. Anyway...
I don't believe the iPad and Pixelsense served the same market, as evidenced by the lack of success of it. Now, if you want to tell me that Apple probably got the idea of iPad from that I would agree that's could've happened. Who knows. But everyone knows the iPad was brought to market way before MS joined in the tablet revolution. That is unless you really think a table is a tablet.
Seriously, you know I have a point.
