Windows Vista

Microsoft is well known for it's brilliant ( Windows 95 - start it up ) and not so brilliant ( Zune - random pink zune ) marketing strategies. But, I have to give them a thumbs up on this one, PowerTogether. A thumbs up only because I got myself a free copy of Vista Business and Office 2007, other than that it was really stupid, a waste of my time and a waste of thier money ( a retail value of $898 ).

PowerTogether is Microsoft's way of marketing which shows how thier new operating system, Microsoft Vista will work with Microsoft Office 2007. I'm sure there was additional marketing strategy to show off their Office Live Meeting software, because you were required to download the plug in for media play just to view the web cast.
