Summary: Katy Perry is recruited by Microsoft to promote its products; instead she insults the company in public

MICROSOFT launched Vista Phony 7 [sic] back in November with a large-scale marketing campaign, complete with fistfuls of celebrities and crying fans (it's not worth going into anecdote and discussing those people here). This expensive charade did not quite produce the results that Microsoft wanted; Vista Phony 7 continued to disappoint and [cref 44048 presidents continue to leave the corporation]. We will write more about the Phoney 7 platform in some later posts. For now, we have an interesting development regarding the campaign itself.



One of Microsoft's high-cost appearances at the campaign was by Katy Perry, who recently "Slam[med] Microsoft" by telling concertgoers that "Microsoft is cheap" (in reference to the bar). To quote more precisely she said: "It's Microsoft! Don't they own half the world?"...

[tab]"It's Microsoft! Don't they own half the world?"...

Surely Katy has not been keeping up to date. Microsoft is no longer as powerful as it used to be and is continuing to decline
. In any event, here are two more articles on the subject [1, 2].
