My parents came for a vacation and my mom was saying she didn't like the commercials because they didn't tell her how to do anything on the new computer...and she just got done learning Win7 and didn't want to change.
The reason I bring that up, these commercials do a great job of getting bits and pieces of the phone out, how some things work, features it has, but ALSO moves around enough to keep up with the ADD world of today.
I like them.
That's unfortunate that she just learned Win7, but the purpose of a commercial isn't supposed to teach you how to use it, especially not something so complex as an OS. They're just there to sell sell sell. There will be countless teaching resources online to learn from .
I like these adds as well, they seem to get the product out there and the people in them seem genuine.
(My mom calls all tablets, including her Asus Transformer, "computers". Their desktop is just her "big computer").
Saw that this morning at the cinema.
Adverts all around my local town centre, and my local phones4u has adverts for the 920 everywhere.
The adverts blitz has started.
Can you not just put her in desktop mode and tell her - there that's your Windows 7 and then show her how to go back by hitting "invisible start" button and then all tiles are new Start menu. If she wants to look for a program, once she is in start menu she just needs to start typing what she wants to open. This is how I explained to my Grand dad and it only took him 2 hours and now he feels like he is a pro at this!
The horse you are beating is beyond dead. Time for something original.
I do, too! Man, I miss that Nokia ringtone. It's still there on Windows Phones, right?I love the end of the ads. XD
Your mom is technically right about that . They're all computers with different interfaces and form factors.My mom calls all tablets, including her Asus Transformer, "computers". Their desktop is just her "big computer".
They really didn't. Windows 7 was a success because 1) It was/is a really good OS, 2) Vista was a train wreck in mind share and reality; people wanted to move past Vista ASAP and 3) computers shipped with Windows 7 after its launch so what options did people have?...the old "I'm a PC and I made Windows 7" commercials didn't cut it.
I don't think TV commercials for WP8 are on the air, yet. At least not in the US. I guess you can't have commercials for phones that you can't buy, yet .I haven't seen one d@mned ad for Windows Phone 8 yet. However, I have seen plenty for Windows 8 and Surface.
