Microsoft achieved a marketing coup today by sneaking the
most recognisable symbol of their Windows operating system
into the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. The
iconic "Blue Screen of Death" appeared on the roof of the
National Stadium during the grand finale, upstaging official
Olympic sponsors who pay large amounts to have their logos
associated with the games.

Major Microsoft competitor, Linux, grudgingly applauded the
stunt and conceded that they couldn't match the Redmond
effort. Apple was unavailable for comment but unofficial
sources have reported Apple employees trying to get in to
the beach volleyball venue.
