Step 1: steal underpants
Step 2: ...
Step 3: safety on the internet
I guess step 2 is 'buy a powerbook'

i don't know if this is the reason why many people hate microsoft, but for all the money they have in the world, they have never done things professionaly. What's wrong with getting a real photographers and let them shoot some real product shots?
It reminds me of the fake switchers ad that they tried to pull on their website a while ago.

In their shoes, I do the same thing. No need to pay for real photographers. Lots of great stock shots out there. It does look like this one tried to edit out the Mac-ness of the machine though. None of the ports are visible in the Mac ad. In their place I would have just picked a stock shot with a PC laptop.
This one is funnier though:
It's one thing to use a hard to recognize laptop (hard to recognize because the ports are not visible) to advertise stuff about OS security, but it's another thing to advertise an easily recognizable TiBook to advertise AMD CPUs.
It reminds me of the fake switchers ad that they tried to pull on their website a while ago.
Yeah, that was majorly lame.

yeah, i agree stock photos could be easier and cheaper than real photographs. But for a huge company like microsoft, this is so lame. But then again micorsoft has never being considered as an innovative company, so i guess it is alright for them to use stock photos.

This is why i think it is so unprofessional for using stock photos. They use a Tibook to advertise AMD chips, and that shows you how they think about the pc products.
