Regarding that Mostly-Mac Image from Microsoft’s Mobile Event
Regarding that picture making its way across the internet, the one at Microsoft’s invitation-only Mobius event where Big Redmond discusses their secret plans for all things Microsoft and Zune, and heartless bloggers show up with Apple Mac hardware…
Yes, that’s our very own editor-in-chief, Dieter Bohn hard-left in the pic, and he assures us, even as we tease him, the machine mix was close to 50/50 and many were running Windows virtual machines (they needed to sync their Zunes, after all!)
(And no, there were no reports of Ballmer snatching iPhones at this event, sadly no reports of iPhones at the event at all…).

Oh, and I just know Dieter was busy loading up TiPb in that picture right there

“heartless bloggers”, eh? Man. How much I feel very sorry for Microsoft.

These are the guys who know what works, right?

Looking at that ceiling, it seems this event was held at an abandoned military complex.

One good thing about Macs is that they run Windows, my PC won’t run OSX unfortunately.
