Kylie, the adorable Asian American kid using Microsoft products is at it again, and this time around she’s pitching Windows 7 – the latest version of Windows to be released in late October.
That said, I think this new commercial with Kylie is a bit less genuine; in her debut commercial, I could genuinely believe that Kylie was using her Windows PC to edit and share her digital photos with her family and friends. In this commercial, Kyle points to all the great reviews for Windows 7 and creates a slideshow to the tune of Europe’s The Final Countdown? She kinda comes across as a Microsoft puppet if you ask me — give me flying humans to the tune of Ray of Light to launch a new operating system any day.
What next?

[...] Windows 7 launched worldwide this past Thursday, but in what has to be one of the strangest, most bizarre cross promotions I think I have every come across, Microsoft teamed up with Burger King in Japan to promote Windows 7 by offering the 7 layer Whopper – that’s seven beef patties. The whole burger is about 2,000 calories, all for about 777 Yen, or about US$8.50. But what does a Whopper have to do with Windows 7? I s Burger King is going to be selling copies of Windows 7 at their stores? And it’s not like I’m more interested in upgrading to Windows 7 because Burger King is running this promotion. I guess the only value for Microsoft is that it gets some free press. [EDITORS NOTE: Like, you know, this blog post.] [...]
