Did you also have a problem when 7-Up started calling itself the "Un-cola" back in the 1970's? The implication being that it was actually better than regular cola without any empirical proof. Think of all the poor uneducated consumers believing that clear lemon-lime soda was good yet also the exact opposite of dark colored cola flavored drinks. The implication that dark cola drinks were bad in comparison pissed off literally dozens of people. 7-Up vs. Cola, Good vs. Evil. The young Pepsi and Coke drinkers were so confused by the negative "Un-cola" marketing campaign they started "Doin' the Dew". Then where did all this leave the remaining outsiders we call the Dr. Pepper crowd? They had to do something to preserve a small shred a dignity. New slogan! But alas, "Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?" destroyed the self-esteem of otherwise happy cola drinkers.
Oh sorry... I got sidetracked entertaining myself with nonsense... now back to the serious topic... about how prejudice I must be for going "Beyond Vista". (I still can't believe we're seriously debating the use of the word prejudice in this context.)
Bob Smith screwed you over. You claim he owes you money but you can't really prove it since it's your word against his. He denies it and he also happens to be black. Are you prejudiced against all blacks by telling people Bob is a thief? Of course not. Then are you prejudiced against Bob by telling people Bob is a thief?
You've tried Vista. You think it sucks but you can't prove it since you're only using your own experiences. Are you prejudiced against Vista by telling people Vista sucks?
Prejudice has nothing to do with anything in the context of this ad campaign.
And "Go Beyond Vista" has got to be one the most benign, kitty-cat, anti-competitor slogans I've ever heard.

It doesn't matter if you tried the product, if I had interactions with black people and use that as an excuse to say they are "this" or "that" and justify it using my so called interactions with them, that's an unfair generalization.
