Embarrassing Stumble from Microsoft Canada - "iMac: the PC You Really Want"
By Remy Davison, Insanely Great Mac
March 12th 2003
Red faces all around at MSN Canada.
MSN Canada has been hoist by its own petard: its own home page features a 17" iMac,
with the moniker "the PC you really want", reports The Register.
The credit for this particular little publicity coup appears to go to (three-second
drumroll) - Apple Canada, who placed the advertisement. Of course, as the article
suggests, you might just called this unbiased; after all, shouldn't advertising and
editorial departments operate quite discreetly?
Clicking through reveals Apple Canada is the destination of this ad. While we're sure
this won't cause MS stock prices to crumble, tomato-colored faces must be the order
the day at ca.msn, while the advertising VP just must be looking for someone to fire.
Analysis: Worth a Time Canada cover, you think?
