Windows XP Adverts?

Do you like the new Widows XP ads that started appearing on our screens today? Also post your comments below.

Cheers

Yes I do like them

Anyone know what the music is on them?

BTW - they've been in circulation before today, and they said 'Coming 25th October' on them. Now that bit has been removed, for obvious reasons

Madonna - Ray of Light...

The slogan was going to be 'Learn to Fly'  but in light of Sept 11th, they changed it.

The adverts are the same Worldwide, at the end of the launch they showed the ads with all the different languages one after another.

Out of curiosity, if the slogan 'learn to fly' was used, wouldn't that be open to some dispute by appropriate advertising bodies?

lol yeah maybe they need to learn to crawl first

no, I don't like them. Micro$oft are evil.

The slogan was not 'Learn to fly', it was in fact 'Prepare to fly'

The system is accompanied by the catch-phrase Yes You Can, after it was changed from Learn To Fly in the wake of the US attacks.

I think this proves me right

I think they're quite cool. Does anyone know if there'll be some new Microsoft Office Assistants now?

Same ones as in Office 2000 here.
