blasdel's link above has Zed Shaw taking claim for it -

You know what’s great about the Internet? When you see something like this obviously astroturfed bullshit ad from Microsoft you can easily parody the hell out of it.

So I did and I’m pretty sure that will set the internets on fire. Again.

Zed Shaw's marketing department of course!

Not that there's anything wrong with that, I'm a fan. I'm a fan of anyone who knows what they're fucking talking about, actually.

That MS site is embarrassing to even look at.

I am just appalled that they believe that people who are ostensibly targeted by this campaign are that unsophisticated.

Maybe they are. Go Zed, your humor makes me happy.
