The History of Microsoft

Aside from the strange robotic voice, this is a very amusing video clip on the history of Microsoft, complete with blue screens. Clip after the jump.

I'd imagine this guy will disappear in the next 24 hours or else bill gates will have him assassinated. btw the strange voice is the disability software for vision impaired persons that cannot see the screen...from microsoft, of course

This video is the history of Windows, that's why it doesn't show Jobs talking about how great is to be working with MS and having IE as the main browser, or how Jobs was anti-drm in 2002 but now he is against the french law to open itunes. Maybe someone should do a "The history of OSX" video. On second though... nah, no one cares about it!

Geez, everyone needs to calm down a bit in here... Cmon, microsoft isn't exactly original. Internet Explorer 7 is essentially a commercialised and corporate clone of Firefox. Vista is constantly being upgraded to compete with the ideas integrated into MacOS X. Nevertheless Microsoft are in a position where they can influence the entire computer market, so all they need is someone as innovative as Jobs to transform the computer world into something people actually like.

Hello Good ideas from Microsoft are not originally designed by their programmers, but bought to other companies that make uncle's Bill bussiness worry! Regards, Alex

TO KEITH. The voice is from Macintosh Voice-to-speech. This just goes to show Windows users judge without knowing s***.

ummm Aaron? this video is "byast?" yes, you are correct, it is BIASED, but that is the freakin point, dipsh*t. thank you for making it clear to all of us the true intelligence level of windows users. and btw, the voice is NOT from windows, its the text to speech software from Mac OS X......thank you.

ok quick question.. are you using a macintosh or an PC? yes i thought so, Mac's are for computer illiterate people.. oh and i'm sure if you follow anyone around 24 hours a day, you will catch them doing something dumb or making a mistake, it is inevitable. Even look at george bush, he has it the worst. This vid's a cheap shot at bill gates, his products are good, XP works really well and very stable. just sometimes overpriced. whoever made the video just a sore loser can't compete with microsoft

This video and many of your comments are directed towards Bill Gates. Look, Microsoft and Apple are not two different religions! They are just two different computing solutions. It makes no difference which path you really take. But please, don't make fun of Bill Gates. Sure, he does look a bit geeky, but I hope you know that that man and his family have amazing hearts. They donate more money to charities and student scholarships than anyone else in the world. Just think about that before you go and talk shit on someone.

I think what we have here is litle man syndrome. Macintosh users are always trying to nit-pick their way to computer superiority. Windows dominates the computer market and Macintosh users just can't handle defeat.

Of all the horrendous problems humanity is facing around the world, you ignorant dorks think your little Microsoft vs. Apple war is the most important. Wake up, losers - it isn't even in the top 100. Real people don't give a crap.

I love it when Gates demos a new product, and it fails very publicly.
