A Friendly Microsoft
by Steve Gibson, Apr 22, 2000 1:32am PDTHere is some funny stuff, Microsoft is reworking their advertising campaign and now want to be known as the happy smiley approachable company. If you still watch TV the commercials will start showing up on TV next week. They are going to focus on the MS brand name instead of particular products.
The latest campaign under the new strategy tries to put a friendly face on Microsoft, a company that has been labeled by a federal judge as a "predatory" monopolist.I hate to poopoo on the MS parade but if someone views MS as a predatory commercial bully, I doubt a few spots on TV is gonna change that opinion.
