HA HA HA, omg I am still laughing my *** off, even Microsoft doesn't use windoze for its digital imaging.

Several digital images that Microsoft Corp. has posted on its Web site to trumpet its new "I'm a PC" ad campaign were actually created on Macs, according to the files' originating-software stamp.
Four of the images that Microsoft made available on its PressPass site Thursday display the designation "Adobe Photoshop C3 Macintosh" when their file properties are examined. The images appear to be frames from the television ads that Microsoft will launch later Thursday.

no no no scott. You have to look into the microsoft thing with office.
Basically, as we all know ms office is useless for pdf's. well they released a document in pdf form to tout how their ms office was better then the new office programs (openoffice (which is free, i use, and its great), koffice, etc). Well going through the stamps on those files shows it was made in a few different tools, also partially on mac. all the things it was made with though not 1 thing was owned/made by MS. they couldnt even use their own office suite to produce the document they put out saying how good theirs was. Nevermind that all the other office programs can now read and sometimes edit pdf's.
MS sucks.
