Not the first time Microsoft does something like this.

I saw an early Windows 2000 advertisement in Infoworld or another similar publication. 2 pages side by side.

Page 1: Windows NT's blue screen of death.
Page 2: Windows 2000 gui.

I don't remember the exact copy, but the message I got from it was "If you bought our previous products you are an idiot. They were unstable and not well crafted. This new one, however, is good".

It was a short-lived campaign, so I guess I wasn't the only one who found it offensive.
