Re: Almost as amusing as Microsoft's gaffe

And, IIRC, someone from this group contacted Microsoft, gloating, and MS removed its error from its website.

Better to gloat in private, methinks.

While in the reading room yesterday, I was browsing the latest copy of
Sports Illustrated. Dell is running an ad for their Poweredge servers this
week, and the ad is made up to look like the classified section of a
newspaper, complete with coffee stain. My sharp eyes happened to notice
that Dell mentioned the AS/400 not once but twice. I guess the
proof-readers at Dell must have come from Microsoft.... :-))

Remember the MS ad a few years back that featured an AS/400 in an ad for
security?

Fun way to start a week!
