The Mojave Experiment
Posted by voice | Filed under Rant, Techie
Old news, but I feel I need to chime in my two cents about this ad campaign. For those who don’t know what its all about, The Mojave Experiment is a campaign by Microsoft to prove that all of the “hate” towards Windows Vista is baseless claims. They collected a group of people, sat them in front of a computer, told them they were testing a new version of Windows, after they were “amazed” it was revealed to them that they were actually using Windows Vista. But heres my problem, these people never actually had the Vista experience everyone knows and hates. How so? Well first off, Microsoft was doing it, they had their techs there and the computers the random people were using were fine-tuned by the Microsoft techs beforehand. Secondly, these people never had to install anything, hardware or software. What does that translate into?
Tell you what, Microsoft. Give them a new laptop or desktop from Dell or HP with Vista on it, let them play with it for a week, then we’ll see how “amazed” they are with your OS, or heck, have them install the OS and get it online.
