Launch Events Around the World Herald the Arrival of Windows XP and the Best PC Experience Ever | |
|
||
| Time: 10:34 EST/15:34 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||
When more than a half million people show up for a party, it had better be entertaining. Today's global launch of Windows XP marked a revolution in computing for PC users worldwide -- and was indeed entertaining. In the Netherlands, taxicabs painted in Windows XP sky-blue gave free rides to surprised passengers. In London, they used Windows XP technology to attempt a new world's speed record for producing a music video. In Brazil, an open-air event covered three miles of highway. In Toronto, a 27,000 square-foot Windows XP banner hung at a golf course driving range adjacent to a highway. "Midnight Madness" events were held at retail stores around the world. | ||
