In scanning my favorite news/blog sites the other day, I came across this funny little video regarding Vista SP1 on Long Zheng's site.
You can watch the video on YouTube.
Is it real...? I don't know but someone went through an awful lot of effort to make a pretty decent replica of the Boss' Dancing in the Dark, right down to the inclusion of a Courtney Cox look-a-like dancing on stage with the 'Vista Street Band' (corny... I know).
Even more surprising to me was the use of the term "Ecosystem" in the video and in the title. And shortly thereafter the term kept popping up. "Microsoft Ecosystem." While not entirely a new term (you can find references of this usage going back quite a few years) it just seems to be saturating the propaganda these days... along with green-friendly assurances and little green leaves next to everything in technology available these days.
True, certain manufacturers are making a tremendous effort to preserve our world... whereas others have learned the amazing, cost-effective method of just sticking a little "green friendly" leaf and message all over their products.
