Windows Despite the generally positive reception of Windows 7 so far, there will still be many people who will want to stick to Windows XP. For these people, downgrade rights are particularly important, and Microsoft has confirmed the rules of the game to El Reg.

Well, usually top notch.

The "People-Ready Business" campaign comes to mind as one of the more "huh?" things they've done.

Also the insulting Office 2007 ads where they used dinosaurs to make fun of people who haven't upgraded yet. Classy.

And they got thoroughly burned by the "Vista Ready" sticker fiasco.

Hands down my favorite is their frequent use of the word "experience". If you feel like you have to keep reminding people how awesome something is to use, it's probably not that great.
