Here are a few ads that were designed by Microsoft to be aired for windows 7. For some reason they were pulled. Enjoy!

There were articles a few weeks ago that they were rejected because they were very 'controversial', racist, etc. Surely they were not referring to these?  :huh:

Yes, the TV show has some off-color humor which could likely offend potential Win7 customers.
