Aweu. (Ack thoo.

)
Is that a song..

iMav · 29-05-2007, 05:53 PM

songs like these will seriously affect vista sales for the worse

ratedrsuperstar · 04-06-2007, 11:45 PM

maybe a greenday or even timbaland would have made a better promo song or video indian music is badly in the dumps

aryayush · 05-06-2007, 12:02 AM

I've heard it before. 'Sucks' is not a good enough word to describe it.

Hmmm....from the topic I just remembered a video! Watch it to the 'end'!

'Wow or WoWW?'

Frankly, these Beryl videos can only impress a six year old. Apart from the rotating cube, none of the effects offer anything better (functionality wise) when compared to Mac OS X. The wiggly windows and extreme use of transparency are a pain to watch. Vista, of course, could use some major improvements.

Its not just about beryl and that useless 'genie effect' dood, I asked everyone to see it to the end. Its hilarious!

aryayush · 05-06-2007, 10:14 AM

Yeah, I did. That famous BSoD. I've seen it a few times before too.

But you've got to realise that it was Windows 98 (or perhaps 95)... (though even Vista is not free of BSoDs).

Cool G5 · 05-06-2007, 11:17 AM

Have heard the song before.It was also shown on vista launch programme on tv.

song is awful...

Microsoft needs to learn something or rather copy something from Apple, marketing techniques.

If Apple can make a failed product into success then MS can obviously make there good products into break through success.

**kalpik** · 06-06-2007, 11:26 PM

^^ Arnt you contradicting yourself? I mean how can a failed product become successful? Its either failed, or successful.. Never both!

praka123 · 07-06-2007, 12:16 AM

does microsoft sponsors online forums?

Let me say this in clear terms. iPod lacks many features which are provided by better mp3 players out there. However it is only Apple Marketing due to which iPod is a success. Actually if you look at the graphics you will realize that iPod is success in USA & Canda only, in Europe customars use many other products like iRiver etc, with there first choice being Mp3 phones like W810i.

Harddisk based mp3 players were available long before iPod. However, they were a failure due to big size etc. iPod came out with a small device which used to play only mp3s & MP4s but despite of this it sold cos it was better then what was available at that time. Add to it Apple's viral marketing & iPod came out to be a success.

6 years down the line there are far better players, & anyone non-American prefers buying someting non-Ipod. For gods sake it doesn't even comes with a FM Tuner.

Yup, MSDN & technet forums

47shailesh · 07-06-2007, 12:47 AM

^^wtf.... Rant.. why are you so jealous of nething that comes from apple..

Peoples does'nt buy ipod for extra features they buy it for quality and where it stands far far better than others..

If it's only Marketing than M$ have huge infrastructure than apple than why does'nt it's Zune is'nt a success..

Sunidhi Chauhan had bugs in her voice while singing that song for VISTA.

True.Cross my heart! I would never have given iPod a thought if it were not an Apple Product.That after i bought it i released it didnt have inbuilt recording , or Fm.
And yes its also over price like its accessories .In ipods griffin you get another music player.
Apple does generate hype and moolah. So marketing does work.
But this time i am so sure Steve Jobs has hit himself in foot by declaring iPhone too early.
The expectation are huge.Remember iPod didint had so many expectation to face when it was launched.People used it and it worked until Apple started advertising and its sales increased a lot.
But here is iPhone. Hyped and advertised to death.That pregnant women advt of iphone made me sure apples hit the roof.And this late release timing is really bad.Because first most of the phone are catching up to it.
Remember what usually happens with products with whom you have huge expectations. More often than not they fall.
Iphone is sailing the most hyped expectation boat.Without 3G!!! i dont know how they even decided on it.That lack of dedicated tactile keyboard is sure going to hit them on the stomach.

47shailesh · 07-06-2007, 01:13 AM

^one more in the line..
R u so dependent on 3G

.. India has'nt seen 3G yet

and you r so worried...

Do have extra money to shell if wanted FM and recording support y did you go for Ipod.. U should have chosen some Companie's product..

Don't act sissy

iMav · 07-06-2007, 02:09 AM

47 india hasnt but rest of the world has

... and yes ipod does lack in a lot areas

praka123 · 07-06-2007, 03:12 AM

anything except microsoft lacks in all areas;right?

iMav · 07-06-2007, 03:29 AM

never said tht ... for the record im not against any company but against fools acting like salesman and not accepting tht something is flawed in what they use and go on crowning wat they use as the best .... i own an ipod and hav seen a lot of other players which are better
