There’s no denying that I’m a fan of Apple products.  My wife and I both own iPhones, she’s got a MacBook Pro, and we both have 1st generation iPod Nanos.  I even take the credit for getting my parents on the iPhone bandwagon.  But I am no loyalist.  I’ve only owned Windows computers, am currently testing Office 2010 beta, and even have some experience doing desktop support with Linux.

So when someone sent me a link to a video making fun of Microsoft’s advertising and product development I couldn’t help but laugh.  It’s a play on Microsoft, showing what the iPod packaging would have looked like if Microsoft had designed it.  Only a few days later did I learn that this video was actually made by Microsoft, making this whole ting twice as funny.  I love companies that can make fun of themselves.  Enjoy.
