I got an e-mail sent to my old Hotmail account from Microsoft late last night announcing “I’m a PC” merchandise along with a request to “Show your PC pride” by buying any number of hats, buttons, ties, shirts, shoes, mousepads, skateboards, bags, and mugs with the words “I’m a PC” emblazoned somewhere on each item.
Not that I don’t think $18.95 plus $4.99 for shipping isn’t a GREAT price for a T-shirt that says “I’m a PC,” in an aqua-blue font from 1986, I’d just rather use a PC quietly and unassumingly because it suits my personal needs better than a Mac is currently capable of doing. As the sole Windows-only guy at CrunchGear, I apologize on behalf of Microsoft and urge you to use whichever system works best for you. That is all.
