pretty good if you ask me

Not a fan at all. Same bs as the rest of the ads. Most users still don't have a production company to make their work as easy as the commercial makes it seem. Yeah, given your hardware and vista install are pro, you can do it as easily too, but it's just not normally the case.

Gotta love some of the engrish in the description at silver's link.
"The same easy as how to use Windows."

But what ad isn't just bs? I think they're quite effective. If a 5 year old can use a pc, they can't be that hard to use as the pc vs. mac makes you think. I think that Microsoft has got a reputation of a bad, hard to use, not cool product, and this is a start towards having a better image of windows, even if it isn't true.

Everybody knows that any 5 year old can make any computer work and that most people over the age of about 25 (that isn't a geek) struggle. Five-year olds are probably Microsoft's best market, because they know how to do virus checks and give the system a re-install every 6 months.

No, I'm not being serious.

I don't see the hard part about using windows. I also don't think it's thier first attempt see Mojave.

if you check the link i posted they have ones about 9 year old vs. 90 year old, trying to say that the software is just as easy for a 90 year old. Truthfully though, my mother, 65 still cant figure out how to get pictures onto her computer using vista.

Crafty play. They went with the only things that Mac hipsters can't look good while tearing apart; kids and old people.

Here's a good one if you dig Girl Talk.
