Vista ads are 'lost' and found

MS-Watch | at | by Mike

After more than a week of waiting, I finally caught a Vista TV commercial, and it was a sharp contrast to Apple's Vista security ad airing in the same program.

Microsoft is spending about half a billion dollars promoting its new flagship products, so it's about time some commercials showed up on TV. I had been watching, through the Super Bowl and TiVo fast forwards on hits like "24." I should have paid more attention to ABC, which Microsoft marketing favored in the past, such as the holiday 2004 "Digital Joy" commercials.
