Microsoft Releases Fourth Anti-iPad Ad Highlighting Windows 8 Multitasking Capabilities
Microsoft has launched a fourth anti-iPad television advertisement, once again highlighting the iPad's inability to run multiple apps at the same time.
In the ad two baseball scouts using an iPad and a Windows 8 tablet vie to sign same player, with the Windows 8 user coming out on top thanks to the tablet's ability to simultaneously display two apps on the screen.
The spot is part of a series that is dedicated to underlining the iPad's flaws in comparison to various Windows 8 devices. Other ads have
focused on the iPad's high price, its lack of built-in productivity apps, and its
non-expandable storage. Microsoft has also launched a website comparing the iPad to a Windows 8 tablet, which turned out to be
inaccurate.
