Where Would Jesus Queue?

Ok, esse entry e para os nerds, e ainda por cima, nerds da Microsoft. Eu estava lendo uma reportagem na Economista ontem sobre o lancamento do iPhone (o titulo, bem sugestivo, era “Where Would Jesus Queue?”), e a reportagem contava como o iPhone estava vendendo que nem pao quente, como a Apple acertou de novo, etc, etc, etc. No final, o autor da reportagem foi contar sobre a experiencia dele de ficar na fila para comprar o bendito iPhone:

 

“As this correspondent was queuing at an Apple store in Emeryville, California, a little girl walked past. Inexplicably, she was not aware of the historic significance of the day. “What are you all standing in line for?” she asked. “Zunes!” shouted a snob far in the back, and everybody within earshot was in stitches for minutes. Zunes, you see, are devices sold by a company called Microsoft that were meant to rival Apple’s iPod. A lot of marketing dollars went into them; but unable to inspire Apple’s brand of religious fervour, they are now merely an obscure punch line.”

    Ele ja tinha visto na Engadget e estava reclamando que todo mundo ia ver isso porque estava na revista. Ora, posso garantir que muito pouca gente em DC le essa revista :-) Mas ate que eu achei uma boa ideia, da para guardar dinheiro etc.
