Microsoft Bribes Bloggers

It looks like Microsoft is busy promoting the new VISTA operating system. So busy, they’ve enlisted help from bloggers. Question is, where is my bribe? ;)

It wasn’t just Zheng. While not every blogger has spoken up, at least six others have fessed up to getting their “presents.” Of course, the bloggers could send the laptop back … and pigs could fly.

It’s a bribe. Period. You say nice things about us, you get nice things from us. Heck, just say neutral things about us–we’ll give you a killer new laptop and we know that you’ll be inclined to say better things about us.
