It appears as though the Windows Not Walls campaign is supposed to be kicking off today.

Anyone have any idea where to see the ads / etc.?

I don't watch to much TV, so if Microsoft puts up a site with all the ads I'd like to see a link to it. That or youtube I guess.

Was that supposed to be funny? It wasn't. It was just weird.

Sven,

did you like Seinfeld's tv show?

Yeah. It was better than that ad.

I just saw that one on tv, and I had a good laugh.   It was kind of interesting that computers were only mentioned at the very end of it.  I am guessing that this was just an introduction to the "stars" of the campaign, and they will slowly ramp up the windows promotion in future ads.

How many hundreds of millions of dollars did Microsoft spend on this ad campaign?

If the rest of these are more of the same, I'd start asking for my money back.

I had high hopes for this campaign. I thought Bill would make a great Dave Thomas. I didn't know they would let the folks who headed up the dino-office campaign head up this one, too.

Exactly like Seinfeld's very last episode.

They should be airing those: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/possibilities/products/default.aspx 

Well, maybe they do, but I'm not in an English speaking region (sadly, I'd like it...) so I don't know.

That was very funny; I was choking on my water just now. Not really sure what it had to do with Windows though.

I don't know. I think it has potential, this one just didn't work all that well. I still think the Bill/Jerry interaction can work. We just need more self-deprecation and lovable Bill.


And it's still a hell of a lot better than a guy going 'wow' after seeing a moose walk past his house, followed by well-groomed corporate smugheads acting like Flip3D is the most amazing thing they've ever seen.
