Microsoft using ‘cartoons’ to up their Windows 7 marketing plan

Seth MacFarlane and Microsoft team up
Finally, Microsoft is doing something a little bit more creative and fun than coming up with unnatural viral videos featuring cheesy infomercial actors. On November 8th Microsoft and Seth MacFarlane [creator of Family Guy] will be pairing up for a commercial-less episode entitled, “Family Guy presents: Seth and Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Show”.
No one knows exactly how Windows 7 will be woven into the program, or even how many times it will be mentioned or referred to, but the unlikely duo has created quite a lot of hype on the web today.
Guess we’ll have to wait and see.
Bah, who are we kidding – we live in Cape Town. SABC or eTV won’t have this one on air for at least 2 years.

Ha! how about SABC won’t ever have this on… Family guy is on season 8 in the states. I think it’s a bit “edgy” for SA audiences.
