		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure why but I&#8217;ve been a bit intrigued lately by some Microsoft advertisements. From print ads to television commercials. Here&#8217;s two to compare real quick. The first one is an old one that I don&#8217;t remember. 




In quite a bit of contrast, here&#8217;s a more contemporary commercial from Microsoft. 




Which one does a better job of selling the product? Do either one? The second is more &#34;creative&#34; per se, but I don&#8217;t think it really promotes the product or intention as visually and effectively.
For a really different Microsoft ad, check-out the one below.
