Windows “Mojave”
August 8, 2008
Recently, Microsoft launched an ad campaign christened “Windows Mojave.” The idea was to dispel any “misconceptions” about their unpopular operating system, Windows Vista. It depicted people on a hidden camera bashing vista, trying vista, then praising vista. I myself am an open source buff and all around Microsoft hater and it wasn’t hard for me to find the problem with this ad campaign.
When the people on camera tried vista, they were trying a demo of vista that was being administered by a vista expert. This means that they tried out the obvious and advertised features of vista. Coincidentally, most of the problems that people experience with vista are driver issues, which would not be apparent on the Microsoft laptop that was used for the demo, and bugs that are deep within the system in basic tasks. Things will slow down randomly, not function and crash.
I am not just one of those random people on the web who has read that vista sucks and believed it with out trying it. I have tried vista, for about five minutes, and liked it because of its obvious interface glitz and snazzy features. But then I asked the computers owners if they had any problems with vista and boy was the list big.
Finally, lets congratulate Microsoft on producing a completely functional demo to advertise a non functioning product.
