Microsoft Corp. and FOX One announced an ambitious, unique marketing collaboration that will showcase the best of Windows 7. The cornerstone of the effort is the exclusive Windows 7 sponsorship of an upcoming television event devoted to the comedy of Seth MacFarlane, creator of “Family Guy,” “American Dad” and “The Cleveland Show.”

“We’re working with FOX on innovative brand integrations that will show how the power and simplicity of Windows 7 can enhance the content FOX viewers love,” said Gayle Troberman, general manager of consumer engagement and advertising at Microsoft. “We have simplified the PC with Windows 7, and together with FOX, we’re simplifying entertainment.”

The plot line is quite simple:

Peter and Lois were trying to help Chris and Meg download some music using their brand new Windows 7 Desktop when all of a sudden, in a cloud of plasma, ionized gas, electricity, and smoke, they were helplessly sucked into the monitor...

and into this new world where the Start Menu changed, the Task Bar wasn't the Task Bar anymore, the Cascading Menus and the Quick Launch disappeared and the whole place felt and smelled very "Vista" in nature...

There they were, hopelessly lost in a strange world full of Aero Glass and True Transparency, stuck, forever, never to be seen or heard from again -

until...

In a panic, Stewie and Brian ran over next door to Quagmire's house and asked him what they should do...

Quagmire calmly and confidently walked into his office, sat down and fired up his "old", "out-dated", "good-for-nothin", "over-the hill" computer - his XP Home System...

Taking a USB Cable, Stewie and Brian ran it out of the house, across the yard, and then with some effort connected it to the brand new Windows 7 Desktop.

Quagmire hums away furiously at the keyboard, pounding code into the Command Prompt at fever pitch speed, and after a few 100 mouse clicks, he said: 'I think I got it" and pressed enter...

A soft hum grows into a loud roar, the house starts to shake, the lights go dim, bolts of static electricity fly from the keyboard in all directions, the hard drive screams at millions of revolutions per minute, the floppy disk growns in pain, the mouse twists and turns to one side, shooting red laser beams into the walls and ceiling, the CRT Monitor glows with a blinding bright blue-green hue...

Stewie and Brian huddle close together, closing their eyes and covering their faces with their arms, praying to the "Tech Gods of WinMatrix", chanting: "The Power of Google compels you"... "The Power of Google compels you"... "The Power of Google compels you"...

With eyes as big as dinner plates, Quagmire exclaims:

"Yes, Yes, Yes! - It's alive, It's alive!"

Peter, Lois, Chris and Meg all of a sudden in "Star Trek Transporter" fashion, appear in Quagmire's office!

After safely returning home, Peter takes the new Windows 7 Desktop and drop-kicks it out the back door...

He sighs, muttering to himself that he could've used it for a paper weight or something and then laughs.

Peter turns to Lois, who gives her man a smile and together embrace Chris, Meg, and Brian...

Quagmire steps in and all together they say:

XP 'till the world blows up!

Then Stewie pops up and says with an evil smile:

"Yes - until I take over the world!"


Just a sneak peak...

I hate doing this, but.....



LAAAAAAAME!

I hate new marketing strategies, especially by FOX and Microsoft. Please don't waste money on this useless entertainment (it it's not free). Go outside and enjoy the weather with some friends.

Whatever! I don't think so...

At least give me a few points for originality!

Where is your plot line?
