Yes, this is a real ad from the Borg. Not sure if it's a step up from the ones with the people wearing dinosaur heads. I guess it is. Much love to dear reader Brandon for sending this in. To the folks at Signal v. Noise who printed this first, I say: Namaste. I honor the place where your content and mine become one.

What's the deal with Leopard, Dad??
(And yes - after that last post, I'm calling you "Dad" from now on.)
Why isn't the model wearing a dinosaur head while pressing the elevator button?
Typical -- corporate America turns it's back on us.
Very negative ad. Cold and dehumanizing.
Microsoft has Vampires to confuse and trick ppl into software for the price of their necks and flesh being bitten into and having their blood sucked and i think Beastmaster bill wants to sank his fangs into our necks and suck out all of our blood once we get vista or upgrade to it after that its hell and we burn....
Subtitle - 'Better a button for every floor than a Windows powered lift'.
Looks like a Borg having its biometrics being scanned so it can enter the Collective.
Hi Steve
Why you run down Microsoft thus.
Who is better Microsoft or Appel?
I believe you know the answer.
> Or does Ferrari run down Ford?
Greetz from Switzerland
Hey that guy looks a little like the Little Dutch boy putting his finger in the hole in the Dam . Very apt description of the modern Win IT and Security manager stemming the tide of threat from virii , spyware adware and the like
Typical of what M$ mistakenly thinks is cool.
Remember that stupid butterfly? WTF?!
Juvenile nerd stuff at its best.
They need to fire their head of marketing & their ad agency.
Nice illustration of the typical microsoft user interface: superficial design, awkward, complicated, and, naturally, butt ugly.
BTW, note that the ad is all black & white, except for the zune colors. Those softards are consistently pathetic.
Amazing. An actual Borg Cube.
FSJ,
Reminds me of Pixar's Lifted.
Vegan Vegan
(human abduction is entirely unnecessary)
Just watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory....now I know where Microsoft is getting some of their ideas
that guys finger, after he presses the buttons and steps away from the panel? his finger smells ... funny!
Kinda makes this funnier: http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/pultius/
