Deterred by the long line and rain for the opening of the Museum of Art and Design (MAD), I decided to venture downtown and check out the Outsiders show I posted last week. I digress for the moment on commenting on the show but wanted to post a link to some photos I came across which do a good job on summing up the work.

Microsofts’ new “I’m a PC” ads appear to have made using CS 3 on a Mac. I don’t think there is any need to say anything more.

“Apparently there’s something worse than being despised and that is to be utterly irrelevant.” – 37Signals
The above quote is from 37Signals “I liked Microsoft better when they were assholes” post which I couldn’t agree with more. After the flop of the Seinfeld and Bill Gates ads and now the “I’m a PC” ads I am curious what Microsoft will do next and if it will alienate them more . Daring Fireball’s commentary referenced in the 37Signals post expands on the Microsoft dilemma, “There’s Nothing There“.
