  • As if we need more proof microsoft is evil...







    LOS ANGELES — Software giant Microsoft Corp. is apologizing for altering a photo on its Web site to change the race of one of the people shown in the picture.

    A photo on the Seattle-based company's U.S. Web site shows two men, one Asian and one black, and a white woman seated at a conference room table. But on the Web site of Microsoft's Polish business unit, the black man's head has been replaced with that of a white man. The color of his hand remains unchanged.

    The photo editing sparked criticism online. Some bloggers said Poland's ethnic homogeneity may have played a role in changing the photo.

    "We are looking into the details of this situation," Microsoft spokesperson Lou Gellos said in a statement Tuesday. "We apologize and are in the process of pulling down the image."

      Yes, they're huge. I heard an echo in a Polish girl once.

          Asian man, black man, and white woman is classic Microsoft. No need to change.

            actually when you think about it, they are just fixing it.

            The original picture is way too PC. First of all, what woman even knows how to run a computer? Who would even let them near one for anything important like run a business. I'm not sure they could run anything besides a chat program.

            I find the lack of a white man disturbing. Are we so PC we can't portray a white man succeeding in anything? Must he always be a beer swilling guy in a t shirt who who's only intellectual capability is watching football?

              The Visual Studio 2008 installer has a white man, a white woman, and a nearly visible minority* douchebag who I want to punch in the mouth every time I see him.

              * He is nearly a visible minority, not an invisible man in which case he would clearly be a minority.

                    Sadly, that's not a minority.

                        I'm not sure, but he has to be a racial minority, since the other two people are white.
