Yes 2006 is still a long way off. -----Original Message----- From: Windows Home/SOHO [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bill Hatcher Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 4:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Software: Microsoft plans massive Windows ad campaign
I wouldn't hold my breath; what it actually says is: "Given its time frame, the "Start Something" campaign will serve as a run up to the debut of Longhorn, the next version of Windows, which is set to go on sale by next year's holiday shopping season." Notice the NEXT YEAR, as in 2006? That also ties in with the 15 month ad campaign. As you say, it gives a hint, but it is still a long way out. - Bill Hatcher [EMAIL PROTECTED] - -----Original Message----- From: Windows Home/SOHO [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of MARC SIMS Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 11:01 To: [email protected] Subject: [WINHOME] Software: Microsoft plans massive Windows ad campaign Even though Windows XP has been on the market for more than three years, Microsoft is hoping a new advertising campaign will "start something" when it comes to enthusiasm for the operating system. http://news.com.com/Microsoft+plans+massive+Windows+ad+campaign/2100-1016-56 74137.html?part=dht&tag=ntop&tag=nl.e703 Guess what guys and gals the article gives a hint as to when Longhorn will be released which is to say will be at or around the big annual shopping season and of course we all know when that is. ;) Don't tell anyone that Santa told me. ;) -- ---------------------------------------- WIN-HOME Archives: http://PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM/archives/WIN-HOME.html Contact the List Owner about problems: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unofficial Win-Home List Members Profiles Page http://winhome.wavijo.com/ -- ---------------------------------------- The WIN-HOME list is hosted on a Windows 2000(TM) machine running L-Soft international's LISTSERV(R) software.
