Oh No! They Didn’t!!!

Below is the promotional poster for the BenQ P50 PocketPC/Phone.

What’s wrong with the above promotional poster?

It’s an ad poster for a PocketPC which runs on Windows Mobile OS, so why is there a old titanium Powerbook laptop in the picture?

Why was this done you ask?

Because marketing people like Macs… it doesn’t matter that Windows Mobile doesn’t sync to the Mac without a piece of third party software because Powerbooks look nice.

The irony of it, it’s an advertisement for PocketPC but they use a Mac laptop.

If they want to showcase a nice laptop, they should consider a Sony VAIO instead of Mac.

I wonder what the reaction of the BenQ Corporation was when they realized this mistake?!
