Windows Vistaを巡ってはあまりに多くの悪評が流れたため、実際に使ったことのない人々でさえ「酷いものだ」と考えるようになりました。そこでMicrosoftは、「Mojave Experiment」と呼ばれる秘密プロジェクトを行いました。
実験において、Microsoft は Windows Vista をまだ試したことがない数百人を招待し、そのオペレーティングシステムについてどう思うかを尋ねました。その後、Vista を 0 から 10 の範囲で評価するよう求めました。
彼らが見つけたものは興味深かった。http://www.mojaveexperiment.com/のモハベ実験をチェックしてほしい。
Never tried Vista but I had a flatmate once that almost cried when he sold his XP laptop to have it replaced with a Vista laptop.
hmmm…. looks like piclens ripoff…

microsoft did it again :D
With Vista, Microsoft needed to work against the general perception that Vista is aweful and problematic.
I’m sure they did a survey to determine how many people are staying away from vista because they heard bad things about it vs people who have actually tried the OS.
I’m also quite sure that the numbers from that survey show that they’re losing potential customers because of bad perception rather than from actual use of the product
I think what they did in this experiment is nothing short of ingenious. Ordinary people who have stayed away from vista because of the bad things they have heard about it might think twice and start giving it another chance.
Now my question is, do they have a similar experiment for Philippine presidents ? God knows she needs it more than Windows Vista :-)
This is exactly why I think it’s stupid for haters to hate something they haven’t even tried first hand.
Common ‘haters’ that fit in the Mojave experiment are:
1. Vista haters (claims the OS sucks)
2. iPhone haters (claims the phone is over-hyped)
Hehe, already figured as much from your write-up without going to the Mojave site. A common tactic also hehe MSFT..
