- scy1192, on 11/17/2008, -7/+564IIRC, Windows works on a Mac. Regardless, Microsoft doesn't sell laptop/desktop hardware.
What's actually shocking is the fact that it was included with an HP computer. - EmitStop, on 11/17/2008, -36/+585Well, why not? Microsoft is primarily a software company, Apple is primarily a hardware company. And Windows runs on Macs. I'd say most of the rivalry between the companies and the mudslinging is done by Apple.
I don't think I've seen many (or any), negative ad campaigns from Microsoft. - AngelBunny, on 11/17/2008, -16/+275why does it matter? windows is designed to run on every PC under the sun and Macintosh is still personal computers as far as I remember.
- vizerei, on 11/17/2008, -4/+211Never really noticed that.
But now that I think about it you do have a point. - inactive, on 11/17/2008, -44/+194Not all silver laptops are Macs.
Also, that PSX controller is a very common design for USB controllers. - HookmasterCH47, on 11/17/2008, -8/+152Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

- homercles337, on 11/17/2008, -8/+99"... most of the ... the mudslinging is done by Apple."
Most? Try all. - Rozal0, on 11/17/2008, -2/+90It's actually a Best Buy ad, not a vista ad.
- ZenMojo, on 11/17/2008, -1/+78It's like talking ***** to a midget in a dunking contest. Microsoft has better things to do.
- Fadakar, on 11/17/2008, -2/+79I wholeheartedly agree.
- omarciddo, on 11/17/2008, -4/+81Last I checked, Windows ran on Macs.
- series0ftubes, on 11/17/2008, -2/+77Fool me twice...fool me twice, can't get fooled again.
- Anthrax704, on 11/17/2008, -2/+75I got that as well
- crazycarlmar, on 11/17/2008, -2/+70You don't see any negative Microsoft ads for the same reason you don't see any negative Coke ads. Both of those companies control the majority of their markets and including their competitors name in their ads would only hurt them.
- goofygarber, on 11/17/2008, -18/+81That is definitely a Mac.
It looks like a Powerbook or a previous gen Macbook Pro. Design firms do these ads, Microsoft doesn't do it in house. Macs are good looking. Pretty straightforward. - Murdats, on 11/17/2008, -0/+62its also a stock photo.
- ultrafez, on 11/17/2008, -3/+61It would have been awfully nice to have a scan of the leaflet in that article...
- dawnraid101, on 11/17/2008, -2/+47No tiny black diamonds with question marks I will not read you or digg you.
- Nephersir7, on 11/17/2008, -1/+41And they are PC-Compatibles since they run on Intel CPUs
- pikpikcarrotmon, on 11/17/2008, -3/+41Don't lie. I know you were smugly grinning when you typed that

- Pecheckler, on 11/17/2008, -15/+45Apple is a hardware company.
Microsoft is a software company.
So, until the day comes that Apple's operating system is sold independently and compatible with any computer, please, stop comparing the them. - inactive, on 11/17/2008, -1/+30You know you, should learn how to use commas.
- t0mmmmmmm, on 11/17/2008, -1/+29primarily
- alphabetagaga, on 11/17/2008, -3/+31Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. You fool me can't get fooled again.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKgPY1adc0A - spaceshipsix, on 11/17/2008, -0/+26Apple is known for its hardware oriented business model, backwards from many other companies.
“Apple, which is thought to make relatively little money from the iTunes store compared with its hardware sales, is also understood to be examining a subscription model” - jessemoya, on 11/17/2008, -5/+31***** you! Two of my friends died �t�G)}�X��#�.wU�@��+(��%�̘LC���[����z�:����$�!
- JohnFrum, on 11/17/2008, -2/+27They use their OS to sell the hardware.
- completerobot, on 11/17/2008, -1/+25You really can't have a story without characters, though, can you?
- PabloMac, on 11/17/2008, -3/+27Ok, maybe a little, but it still wasn't necessary.
- sauron256, on 11/17/2008, -2/+23A dim bulb brightens...
- inactive, on 11/17/2008, -0/+21Oh, another mirror.
The other one works fine. - metaliq, on 11/17/2008, -0/+20@erzhaosong2000:
Most of my coke went straight into my nose as I read your comment. - consoneo, on 11/17/2008, -4/+24Here... I gotta comment hijack to stop all the stupid posting of the symbols...
http://hehe2.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/micros ... - inactive, on 11/17/2008, -3/+23Since Windows runs on Macs, and Microsoft does software, they shouldn't be so anal.
But seeing as how Microsoft ALSO makes a games console, it makes me smile seeing those kids using PS2 controllers. - anagoge, on 11/17/2008, -0/+19:o DOOMSDAY CODE!!! You idiot, we're all going to ***** die now!
- roxgod666, on 11/17/2008, -1/+19Actually, Apple is in the hardware business. That is where their revenue is made and their primary focus. They use software as a tool to sell their hardware which is why they limit it only for Macs. So it should be
"People who are really serious about hardware should make their own software." - benbriggs, on 11/17/2008, -5/+23WTF?! Is It Just Me or Are There Just Characters Instead Of A Story??
- troub, on 11/17/2008, -1/+18*cough* BSD *cough*
- stockjones, on 11/17/2008, -5/+22Its a silver Dell Inspirion you knuckleheads. Or one of a hundred silver PC laptops on the market. Silver or chrome looking laptops are not exclusive to Apple.
- alexnb185, on 11/17/2008, -7/+23uuuuhhhh wtf, this is the second time this has happened but when I click it all I get is a bunch of text that is ike weird symbols and *****.
Aliens perhaps?
Or Russians, one of the two. - sfmman, on 11/17/2008, -2/+18It's called a stock photo.
- Hefelumpman, on 11/17/2008, -1/+17unless you're seeing characters only in the range 0-F, you're not seeng hex.
