MS Kin was such a dismal failure that it was pulled after only 48 days. Looking at this ad, I can see why. Who would want to buy a product that only highlights how stupid, shallow, boring, and perverted all your online friends really are?
@ginito Dude. None of us geeks understand MS either- we prefer open source OS's. We've always known that MS was eviltech incarnate. And Crud Puppy ran it all.
@red88alert The closest I could come to was Passion Pit's "Live to Tell the Tale." I've searched high and low for this one but no luck. It sounded familiar because I already have Passion Pit. Maybe it's a sample?
@bimmerman325i thanks for letting me know tho :) i heard live to tell the tale and it doesnt sound like this at all lol you think its a cover or just a different band and a different song???
@bimmerman325i oh yea thats true now that i hear it it sounds alike but the one in the ad has some added stuff to it...i just wish i could find the exact one from the ad lol
@red88alert Well, that's what a sample is; they take a snippet of a song and make another. A more mainstream example would be M.I.A.'s sample of The Clash's "Straight to Hell." But I'd like to find this ad version, too haha

seriously, microsoft has NO FUCKING IDEA on how to approach to young non–geeky people these days..
seriously, they should just stick with Office and Xbox; at least those 2 things are ok.. not even windows!

@red88alert Not the whole song. It seems like Microsoft sampled starting at :22 in Live to Tell and starting at :16 in the kin ad.
