Microsoft presenta a Indiana Ballmer en una de sus aventuras más increíbles.
¿Podrá este aventurero reemplazar con éxito su más famoso sistema operativo?
Spoiler: comentan los que vieron la película que si bien logra cambiar la caja en la estantería de una mitológica tienda informática, luego es perseguido por una gigantesca bola de críticas…
Pueden saber más sobre las aventuras de Indiana Ballmer en ¿su? blog.

AJuajuajaua, maravilloso el spoiler!!
Jajaja… falto la parte en la que escapa de la bola de críticas y es perseguido por una tribu… de abogados (?) porque el XP que logró conseguir era pirateado.
Countdown To The XP Swapout!
So I’m in Israel! The Holy Land! The Birth place of the world’s three great religions! You would think that the reporters would have something better to ask me about than the same old question that chases me everywhere else that I go around the world:
“Mr. Ballmer, are you really gonna’ kill Windows XP on July 15? People hate Vista ya know?”
I responded with sheer genius as usual,
“I am in noooo way disappointed with Vista sales! It’s selling Incredibly well!
Vista sells on almost 100 per cent of all the new consumer PCs around the world,” I looked around, pointed up to the heavens and proclaimed, “The Vista operating system is also selling on 45 per cent of all of new business PCs, once the XP hindrance is removed it will be 95%! Vista, has had a good unit volume market reaction!”One squirrel looking guy with a beanie cap asked in a rather condescending tone:
“Vista is half-cocked, ya know? I just doesn’t work ya know, nothing runs right on it ya know, it’s a resource pig ya know?”
I sensed this press conference was going down hill quickly, so I said:
“Yes, application compatibility in Vista was not as high as many of our customers would have liked. That is improving, not because we’ve changed Vista, but because the applications are getting upgraded to be Vista compatible. What we have learned is that maybe our customers care a little bit more about compatibility and a little bit less about security.”
They looked at me a little confused. So I continued down the same road:
“It always takes people a while to get used to new things and Vista was no exception.
When you change the look of your product, you always think it looks better, but your users always have to get used to the new one I think we’re going through something of a process whereby Vista users are still getting used to Vista after moving from XP. (We are just going to help them along!)”
Just for good measure I threw is a few more zingers:
The Xbox has been a funny product for us, it too a long time to figure out how to make money out of it.
The same applies to Zune,” I chuckled, “except we still haven’t figured out how to make money out of that one.”
Bill always told me to leave ‘em wanting more, so despite their screams for “clarification”, that’s exactly what I did!
XP is toast people! Live with it!
Yeah Baby!
