I wonder how long until the first blogger camps out at the door…

January 4, 2007

As if Apple hadn’t already created a MacNerd Frenzy with their new home page, Microsoft’s Mac Business unit just made the following announcement:

“We are sponsoring the first Blogger Lounge at Macworld, which will be located in Booth 702 of the Exhibit Hall (near our main Microsoft booth). Details can be found here on the Macworld event page.

It will be a casual atmosphere for bloggers, podcasters, and other online community members to hang out, relax, and blog/post about the event without having to search for an Internet Cafe or run back to their hotels. There will be iMacs available, couches, tables, refreshments, and Internet access for those with notebooks.”

Isn’t this akin to announcing to a bunch of Star Trek fans that Leeta and Seven of Nine were going to be Jello wrestling at the next convention? How is anyone going to get a seat in that room?

It’s a fair bet they won’t have Vista laptops to give away, or even use.
