That was an internal moral booster thing rather than a publicity campaign. Companies do these sort of things all the time in order to celebrate success stories. Neither Google nor Microsoft commands attack ads nearly as well as Apple. As I mentioned earlier, Steve Jobs directly put words in Samsung CEO's mouth at the iPad2 launch, which is just distasteful. He probably did it because he thought he could get away with it, being a large Samsung customer for parts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
