Michael Aivaliotis Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 Maybe NI should take an example from this marketing video for Windows 386 as an example of how to promote multicore processing. Be patient, it get freaky towards the middle. <embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=4915875929930836239&hl=en" flashvars=""> </embed> Quote Link to comment
Tomi Maila Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I wonder if Bill himself was the art director for this video Quote Link to comment
Jeffrey Habets Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Ah, so I guess this promotional video is the reason why OS/2 never made it even though it was the superior OS of the two in these days.. Quote Link to comment

orko Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 There is some pretty interesting commentary about the making of this video in Larry Osterman's weblog. Another little bit of trivia is that the lead actress, Victoria Carver, also was the madam in a 1970's skinflik "The Godson" (check out the plot keywords...). No wonder I felt like this was the start of an 80's porno... I almost felt dirty after watching it! Wuh wuh Windows? Quote Link to comment
