Pukey Microsoft Explorer Commercial
What the hell was Microsoft thinking when they approved this commeecial for Internet Explorer 8? The premise is that men are looking at nasty porn on the internet and their product will make it so they can hide that fact from their extremely squeamish wives. We know sex sells, but does vomit?

I’ve often had that reaction looking at Windows.
What I think is amazing is that IE8 apparently is so awesome that it must recognize when you walk away from the computer and then hides what you’ve been looking at. I mean, because otherwise, she would still have seen it. So, well, that’s cool.
I do wish they’d have listed the link he was looking at. It might have made for a fun prank.

I think it would sell to those guys that have been caught by their wives looking at some messed up stuff.

Come to think of it, if I could get people to vomit a few times when they look at my computer screen, that’d be a much better way to discourage them from poking around on it than all that pesky login/password and private browsing stuff. Sort of like why I won’t touch Seagram’s 7 ever again.
I think I’ll sell my Macs and grab an older PC - one without IE8 on it.
