Inside the Windows 7 Launch Party Pack
Barence writes to tell us that it seems Microsoft has been grinding away in the corporate world for so long, they have forgotten what "fun" means. PC Pro managed to get their hands on one of the "party packs," and it seems woefully inadequate. Nowhere did we see a pin-the-chair on the Ballmer game, giveaways that you might actually use, or even a few balloons or streamers. Instead, the only reason to get a party pack seems to be the free copy of Windows Ultimate Signature edition, which doesn't do much for your party guests (unless you burn them all copies I guess, but we would never condone that). All-in-all, it seems that Microsoft should have gone to the nearest dorm room and asked for some pointers on how to have a good party.
And spend six months getting my WiFi adapter and video card working?
Doesn't sound like a party to me.
You are welcome on my lawn.
It's not our fault you are fucking retarded. Linux is about freedom from tyranny, not special-ed for apemen.
Download any Linux distribution and get thousands of dollars worth of software for free, throw a party and hand out copies so your friends get thousands of dollars worth of software too. $300 only if someone willing to pay that. LoB
Download any Linux distribution and get thousands of dollars worth of software no one outside of Linux circles has ever heard of, throw a party and hand out copies so your friends can enjoy not playing games too.

The sad thing is that if this was Apple, fans would be lapping it up, citing it as an example of how Apple were hip and Macs were cool, and how they'd introduced some new marketing innovation.
TFA was probably the most contentless one evar to hit the frontpage of /. I understand the box was pretty contentless, but to use a car analogy, if I didn't receive a Lambo again this year for my birthday, I'm not going to write a fscking article about it. Okay, now I'll leave all you losers to go back to your regularly scheduled typing MS insults with one hand and jerking yourselves off with the other. The only pleasure you always angry Slashfags ever get, so enjoy yourselves, because no one else on this planet does. Especially women. You know, that other category of the human species, that you get to see without clothes on everywhere except meatspace. Hahahahaha!
