    Wow. I think this is about the single BEST ad I've seen on ms.com. It's simple, it conveys EXACTLY what it's ment to, and frankly, everyone knows who BillG is.... and can recognise him, even 30+ years ago. Bravo. Very nice change.

    That's the most ingenious ad MS has done.  You know... had Live pulled this off you wouldn't be living under such fiasco now. Even John Wilcox, the most critical MS writer, praised this: http://www.microsoft-watch.com/content/corporate/inspired_gates.html

    Saw it yesterday and immediately thought of you and Express. It is also good in that BillG is a great computer programmer (there's extensive proof to that). But back then there were only paper tapes, weren't they. No intellisense whatsoever!

    It's just Basic.... Cool, the man is just a human like the rest of us.
