Limitless Vistas! Well, Maybe Not...

Via Dr. Joe, a funny article from Forbes about how Microsoft is becoming increasingly clueless. My favorite 'graph:
Even more ironic is that Microsoft has ginned up a new slogan, "People Ready," which apparently is meant to describe its software, or maybe it describes companies that use its software, or whatever. Who knows? It's one of those phrases that means anything, and so means nothing. Who makes this stuff up? Do they actually pay this person? And is Microsoft just figuring out now that its programs are used by--gasp--people?
Then again, I've never encountered a slogan for anything that had any actual meaning.
