Microsoft has released its second commercial starring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld. Have you seen it yet?
Trying to understand the logic behind Microsoft's development decisions is a bit like S&M: it's a painful activity probably best left to others. But a recent example from the storage world does suggest something about Microsoft's "people will beat up on us regardless" dilemma.
