Tired of being cast as the stodgy oldster by Apple ads, Microsoft is turning to comedian Jerry Seinfeld for a little help, reports the Wall Street Journal. Microsoft is launching a $300 million ad campaign to spruce up their image, with Seinfeld as one of their pitchmen. Anonymous sources say he'll appear with Bill Gates in some ads and will receive $10 million. Not a bad gig.
I read this article about Microsoft's new ad campaign today in the Wall Street Journal. My initial reaction was sadness as Microsoft has become so reactionary. Apple comes out with a great media blitz years ago and is taking away market share and years later MSFT reacts. Google wins search, MSFT reacts...time to become PROACTIVE.
Desperation is really settling in now isn't Microsoft ????
Welcome to your eventual demise....
Let us know how 2nd place feels !!!!
A-P-P-L-E !!!!
The Scariest 2 syllable word known to Microsoft employees everywhere.
Well Microsoft does STILL have a 98% market share in computing worldwide. And - we dont use child laborers to code our software, or build our hardware. We dont need to poke fun at our competitors to get that share either. HAIL Microsoft
