  Microsoft's Chromebook headache
Time: 17:40 EST/22:40 GMT | News Source: Fortune.com | Posted By: Robert Stein

Chromebooks aren't just any PC alternative. They're the one Microsoft has worked hard to discredit as a mere toy. Chromebooks feature prominently in Redmond's "Scroogled" marketing campaign, a much-criticized series of attack ads on Google's products and business practices that Microsoft launched in November 2012. In the Chromebook "Scroogled" ads, actors disparage the Google-powered laptops for not being able to run Windows or popular programs like Office, iTunes, or Photoshop, and for being "pretty much a brick" when not connected to the Internet.
