Vista officially released today
Today, within a minutes, Vista will be officially released in Portugal. A lot of buzz about this event seems like Vista will change people’s life or something… One thing is for sure, users have to relearn a new operating system.
We are being annoyed with this event in our public TV and some radio stations.
And guess what? You can win a Vista license autographed by Bill Gates
What’s the point?
Microsoft is paying a lot for this kind of ads and “non-news†in our media channels and this is the big advantage of Microsoft. They have millions to spend in promoting their products.
Well, there’s some folks believing that the fact that users have to relearn using a new operating system, it is a great opportunity for Mac OS. Others have their arguments against Mac OS doing a direct competition with Vista. Every one has their arguments, and mine is that Apple will not take the advantage of this. Apple can get in big trouble with the giant Microsoft if they take their shot.
The same guys that break all rules to win the market can take down any competitor with a blink. Microsoft has an aggressive marketing strategy, and they are succeeding with it. The same marketing strategy, though some may find unethical, is something that I admire in Microsoft.
Be sure if you want waste your time and money with Vista.
Asta la Vista,
