What's With the 'Tude, Microsoft?

Recently Microsoft unveiled a website to promote it's new Photosynth photography system (www.photosynth.net). It's billed as way to view photos in 3-D environment. As a fan of photography I clicked to the site to find out more. While there I learned that right now it's only available for Windows based computers. I have an iMac so I couldn't view any of the images. That’s fine but I was a bit surprised by the message I got when I tried to take a look:

“Unfortunately, we’re not cool enough to run on your OS (operating system) yet. We really wish we had a version of Photosynth that worked cross platform, but for now it only runs on Windows.”

Is it me or is this a rather strange way to state the application is only available for the PC? The attitude is a bit of a turnoff. I was a PC user for eight years and this kind of statement reminds me why I made the switch.

Microsoft recently announced that it will use Jerry Seinfeld in a series of commercials with Bill Gates. Let's hope they don't inspire comparisons to the film, "Grumpy Old Men."
