Very absurd ad...

An automatas choreography, and a karaoke singer ? They should focus on technical facts, and demos of the working product.

Hello Antonio,
you have to look at the other videos too:

The Making of the Design of Surface
Learn more about Surface
etc.

Best regards,
Otto

Antonio,
this is beatboxing not karaoke

Hello Antonio,
look at the YouTube view counter of this ad page.
It is increasing by more than 10000 each hour.

Dear Otto,

Sorry but I don't get it.

Sales figures are the exact reflection of the market acceptance of a product, not the number of views of a video...

Lots of people watch a movie trailer, but not all of them go to the cinema to watch the movie...

Hello Antonio,
you are totally right.
But from the marketing point of view this youtube couter is interesting to follow.
When I first saw the ad there have been 70000 views now 4 days later 340000.
I am curious what the number will be in 10 days.
Today there was a DELL advertising supplement in Austrias most read newspaper.
On every screen only WINDOWS 8. The main food-discounters over here – all of them also sell PCs – have WINWOS 8 PC and notebook in their current offer on the first page.
Every company over here who wants a modern touch do have somewhere a product placing with a WINDOWS 8 start screen.
This is the situation here in Austria.
Best regards,
Otto

Cool thread ...

I like both Surface (RT and PRO) commercials. BTW, the dancer is also featuring in the latest Bob Dylan's video:

Here is also the remix of both ads by photographer Stay Classy:

It is quite logical that lots of people will watch the Microsoft's 8 adds as Microsoft is very important in the software industry.

Everybody know about the iPad, so I think that the adds should focus on why people should buy a Microsoft tablet instead of the iPad.

Along this year we will see whats happens
