Microsoft airbrushes anti-Apple ad

Poor MS. They finally made a decent commercial, and all you can do is criticize them for it.

Not a crime, unless being an idiot is illegal now

While the events are tragic, laws weren't broken here. This Drew woman might be a juvenile bitch, but she's not criminally liable.
