Probably the biggest problem that it is running into is the transparency of the blogosphere. If it were still old media, that transparency wouldn’t exist and nobody would have said anything about getting a laptop from Microsoft. But us bloggers have a little pride and want to be transparent.

That statement invalidates all the ensuing arguments. I’ve heard it often, because it is easy to blame everything on some Evil Empire being greedy. I started the FontFont label 16 years ago and still have to work every day. Nobody has become a millionair designing type. It takes at least 100 hours to design and produce a family of 4 weights. So much for recreating Garamond, Bodoni et al. Go ahead, have fun!

I agree with the opinion that it`s just marketing and that if you want to talk about a product you should know about it. I was in on the beta test and rc test ( no, I didn`t get a laptop ) and so far I love it. I tell the people I do computer work for that I love it. If I had not used it I wouldn`t recommend it. Microsoft is just doing good business.

I understand Microsoft fears people will make uninformed comments on Vista. And downloading it and setting it up takes time. Being given a sexy free laptop with it on the other hand and they’ll definitely play around with it. But those they give it to loose credibility. To get the moral high ground they could have made the laptop one of those $100 for all kids on earth lap tops and collected it a few weeks later for a donation

I couldn’t agree with you more. MS is damned if they do, damned if they don’t. Give laptops? “They are buying people.” No laptops? “They don’t understand bloggers.”

If Google did the same thing they’d be lauded as the greatest geniuses who have graced this universe.

There is not enough discussion here of the obvious spin in this campaign: If they had sent review copies of Vista sans computers, they would have run the risk of getting bitched out about the entire process of installing this crap on existing machines. So they controlled the buzz by giving people machines pre-loaded.

Vista actually comes with a money back guarantee. I was able to send it back nd get re-imbursed (shipping too!) At least they make it easy to get a refund through the MS money back guarantee program.

To get the moral high ground they could have made the laptop one of those $100 for all kids on earth lap tops and collected it a few weeks later for a donation. And if Vista performed well on one of those then we'd all be truly impressed.
