I’m sure you all have seen the “Great Moments” at work commercials for the new Microsoft Office “System” (Microsoft Office suite). The ones where they do seemingly vague and amazing things because of the software and then somehow save the day.


I hate these commercials. They don’t say anything about what the software actually does or how it can accomplish these grandiose feats. I guess simply by loading the software, it turns you into some sort of superhero that can leap buildings in a single bound, fly around the office, receive spontaneous high-fives from co-workers and act like a total jackass (a la the commericals) at work. Way to go Microsoft, you made commercials that aren’t funny, aren’t useful, and are stupid. I hope these die quicker than the “Dude, you are getting a Dell” guy commercials (then again, the Dell intern commericals are just as annoying).
