"People-Ready Business." That's Microsoft's latest marketing slogan !!!

interesting read here at pcworld .

So what really is People-ready Business ???
A User focussed approach ??? :twisted:
Or An Empty Phrase ? :rolleyes:
What does it mean to YOU !?

For me, being-people ready, in short, means being market-savvy...and thats something Microsoft always was !

Wasn't this the one that started a fire among bloggers over ethics of being paid to write a few lines by Microsoft? I heard Om Malik did it too :)

Oh yeah sorry, I just checked the URL and since I'd read it on AUS's PC World, I thought this wasn't so and gave away the slashdot instead .. :)
