Gotta tell you, although Microsoft's advertising style (graphics and sounds) may not be a stylish as, say, Apple (and even that is very arguable), in the long run when it inevitably comes down to choosing between MS's "David Carson/Drum&Bass/Seattle Hipster" aesthetic and AOL/Time Warner's "Parade Magazine/Reader's Digest/Kenny G" aesthetic, I know where I'll stand. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
