The article is so fraught with bad reporting that it’s hard to determine if this is some nefarious plot to serve misinformation to support the currently useless Mac anti-virus industry, or simply another example of ignorant incompetence.Ну и картинка про Египет крута.
2005 PDC, Hillel Cooperman, who is in charge of user experience for Windows talked about a lot of the places in which the Windows user experience isn’t great, and one of what he talked about was when you buy a Windows laptop, it’s got about 4 little crappy stickers all over it, and this is not first class, you know, that’s just cheap to have these dumb little stickers, Intel Inside, Powered by blah-blah-blah, and a little Windows sticker [...] Can you imagine if you bought a Lexus and it had all kinds of crappy little stickers on there? So, Hillel Cooperman said, we gonna stop these crappy stickers, because that’s a part of why people love their Macs, and why the Mac laptop is so much more elegant than a PC piece of junk laptop [...]
And the audience stood of their feet and cheered for like an hour.
Hillel Cooperman no longer works at Microsoft.

During Apple’s Switchers campaign, Microsoft ran a print ad entitled «Confessions of a Mac to PC convert,» portraying a professionally dressed woman complaining about her Mac stating, «Yes, it’s true. I like the Microsoft Windows XP operating system enough to change my whole computing world around. [...] Windows XP gives me more choices and flexibility and better compatibility with the rest of the computing world.»
It turned out that Microsoft’s «convert» was a stock photography model from Getty Library, and her adspeak was written by a freelance writer Microsoft hired. When the sham convert was exposed by the BBC, Microsoft yanked the ad and killed the copycat campaign, but not before it generated more free publicity for Apple.
