Blasphemy

[harrymohan]

Hi Guys,
I was recently at Redmond( Microsoft office) for interviewing as I am a college student. And I saw a guy with a white Macbook at the premises of Microsoft building😀. And I asked the interviewer who came to receive me, what is this guy and this machine doing here 😱 and he was totally intrigued with my question and happily said when a guy who was in elevator can show his macbook to Steve Balmer then he's pretty ok 😀😀😎😛 hahahaha

What are your comments on it 😱😛

Is it Mac-inization at Redmond 🙄😛

Microsoft is doing development on Apps for OS X. Example being Office 2008. My friend interviewed at Microsoft for a Linux position. I guess the phrase, "If you can't beat it, steal it" comes into play. Or I think thats how it goes. 🙂

btw I showed him my iPhone and gave N number of reasons why iPod is better than MS Zune. Now u know what would be the outcome of the interview 😱😛😛

hahahah

Microsoft's Macintosh Business Unit is also located at Microsoft in Redmond, WA.

Not quite sure that qualifies as blasphemy. Heresy, maybe. Anyway... perhaps he had windows on the thing 🙄

Why blashphemy? Microsoft does not produce computers - only peripherals and the software to run on them - be they Sonys, HPs or Apple Macs. Gotta have something to run Vista on.

I have a couple of friends who work at Microsoft, and I know a guy who works high up on the Zune team. He is very upfront that most of the entire unit uses Macs, and some of them own iPods. I just got a kick out of that 😀

(living in Seattle, everyone works at Microsoft)
