Video: Steve Ballmer sells Windows 1.0
I came across a nice video this morning: 1985, Steve Ballmer sells Windows 1.0.
Un-be-lievable! It comes with Write and Reversi and runns bla-zing-ly fast on a 286! And all that for only 99 Dollars!

This guy is just sick. I guess programs like “paint” didn’t change since this amazing release.
Thanks for this link anyway.

That is not an actual advert.
Its a joke video by Ballmer for Microsoft employees.
Microsoft is known to create such funny videos featuring Microsoft execs for distribution to its employees.
Its usually played in big company events.

Holy cow, (Forsynth) you mean this thing is real? I figured it was some sort of joke with a look-alike. Wow, I can actually feel the amount of hate for them diminishing a tad. (Not much, but comparatively speaking, I have a lot of reserve hate for them…the fact that it moved at all is impressive.)

Putain, l’angoisse !
Qu est-ce qu’il prenait à l’époque Steve pour être aussi dingue ? Les même trucs que dans Miami Vice ? En tout cas, aujourd’hui, s’il le refaisait, que dirait-il de plus ?
