Microsoft are trying
They are really trying to convince people that PCs are a good choice, and in fact, on some of the videos, there are some relatively good thoughts and comments. But none of them actually talk about the one thing that really matters. The OS.
No matter how hard you try, there is nothing, and I mean nothing, that will convince me that VISTAster is going to be an enjoyable experience 
I’m now going to be waiting for when one of the people featured in the videos are captured using a nice new MBP!
The future is looking good
These are some pretty amazing concepts from Microsoft of all people (originally seen over at ReadWriteWeb here).
Photosynth Launches
Microsoft are starting to launch some pretty cool applications which are capturing people’s attention more than the standard Visaster stuff.
Photosynth is one such application which stitches photos together to create a seemless interactive world:
Imagine being able to share the places and things you love using the cinematic quality of a movie, the control of a video game, and the mind-blowing detail of the real world. With nothing more than a bunch of photos, Photosynth creates an amazing new experience.
It looks amazing and I was genuinely impressed when I saw a demo of it a few months ago.
ReadWriteWeb have a good review of it here and explain some of the fundamental features.
One problem for me though (and of course countless others), is that it does not run on a Mac (yet). However, Microsoft do admit this in a truthful manner
