Still, speaking to Digiday, marketing agency MCD Partners said that the partnership between the PC makers felt desperate: "Campaigns in which multiple competitive brands with common vested interests come together rarely succeed." Ted Florea from brand agency PNYC suggested that the tagline itself is misguided. "Not knowing what a PC does is a failure of all the players involved to stay relevant," he said.

Stymie posted:really? because the microsoft surface advertising made tim cook scramble to create a rival product in the ipad maxi microsoft spent two billion earth dollars on marketing at the original surface launch then took a $900mil writedown on unsold inventory, they gave the nfl another $500 mil, they've spent at least $4 bil on windows pho, there was the whole bill gates/seinfeld thing, $4-5 bil on windows 8, another couple on bing dubstep ads, several billion on xbox that's probably more than the total R&D+marketing costs of the entire ipad line to date almost all microsoft's recent revenue growth has been in office and server/cloud stuff and I'd be surprised if their enterprise marketing budget is more than mid-9 figgies qirex fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Oct 16, 2015 |

microsoft desperately wants to be a consumer brand because there's a lot of money to be made with it, and probably because they're terrified of the prospect of people just bringing in their own laptops or tablets into work and not using a workstation the only problem is that they'll always be associated with your weird, lovely, slow office PC that doesn't work right

the 360 was the first thing even approaching a successful consumer product so every group got their hooks in for the follow up which is why they ended up picking The Wrong RAM
