No joke. Microsoft is producing their own line of action figures. ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/events/hero/) They look like bastardized Lego figures. Last month they started an online comic called "Heroes Happen Here" ( http://www.microsoft.com/heroeshappenhere/cool-stuff/comic/default.mspx) about all the ways in which Microsoft saves the day. (Note: if you want to see any of the previous strips you have to install Microsoft Silverlight which is a bloated reinvention of Flash. Not recommended regardless). Is it me, or has their marketing department been smoking something? |
