X-Box & Taco Bell?
by Steve Gibson, Apr 23, 2001 11:20am PDTMicrosoft is lining their ducks up in a row getting ready for one of the hugest media blitzes ever conceived for any form of entertainment.
Taco Bell Corp., America's leading Mexican-style, quick-service restaurant chain, has signed on as the first promotional partner for the launch of the highly anticipated Microsoft® Xbox(TM) video game system. The companies plan to combine their powerhouse brands in a promotional campaign to reach their shared target audiences across the United States and Canada. Taco Bell will provide substantial media support that will aggressively publicize Xbox, and the company will host major in-store promotions to support the Xbox launch.update Jack - I feel betrayed!

is this JUST for Taco Bell, or for PepsiCo in general? 'cuz Pepsi owns Taco Bell, KFC and some other stuff (which I can't remember). So, are we going to be seeing Pepsi ads saying "Buy Xbox, drink Pepsi!", or just "Buy Xbox, eat Tbell!"?
