Microsoft - Not Cool Enough For Mac!
Apple fans everywhere, here's an occasion for you to go out, get as much beer as you can handle, some pizza, hotdogs, Chinese food, or whatever you like, and start the party! Could you ever imagine living the day when Microsoft would say they are "not cool enough" for the Mac world? This took me by surprise, and although I talked about Microsoft Photosynth for a while one of these days, I missed the "not cool enough" part, because I wasn't using a Mac when I checked that website. Anyway, Microsoft Photosynth doesn't seem to be cool enough for Opera either, but I'll leave that aside now, so let's move on...

...and get back to the main topic - Microsoft is not cool enough for Mac! I know, it sounds like the claim of the average Apple fanboy, but it's not - you can see that in the screenshot above...
Here's the excerpt, if you want to send it to your friends or use it as a status in your instant messaging program: "Unfortunately, we're not cool enough to run on your OS yet. We really wish we had a version of Photosynth that worked cross platform, but for now it only runs on Windows. Trust us, as soon as we have a Mac version ready, it will be up and available on our site."
Now, there's only one "problem" I can think of - what if the message above also appears for those running some Linux distribution? I have no idea, I didn't manage to try that yet, but if you know more than I do, be sure to drop a comment below. Thanks in advance!

you’re an idiot, its quite blatantly a tongue in cheek statement by microsoft aimed at having a dig at apple and their so-called “cool” status. Christ it takes a real apple twat to twist that one around, your a dick, your the reason apple fanboy’s still exist

Well, Microsoft only tries to be cool. So far, no success. Apple, despite its drawbacks - nothing is perfect, after all - at least managed to be “cool!”
