Hey! Why don't we get stuff like this down here?
Microsoft Canada, in partnership with Apple Canada, has launched www.machemistry.ca. The new site for Mac-using professionals is part of The Chemistry Project - a Canadian program that explores and promotes good chemistry between the two companies, and Mac owners. Machemistry.ca visitors are invited to experiment with Microsoft Office v. X, Microsoft's latest suite for the Mac. They can take a fun personality litmus test, listen to an original hip hop anthem for the Mac user called "Just a Little Irreverent", and learn from high profile Canadian celebrities who are Mac masters.
Whine! We want an original hip-hop anthem too!
Granted, it's Microsoft... but the Microsoft Mac Business Unit (MBU) has long been considered one of the cooler parts of the Beast. You know, bringing it down from the inside and all that. Big on the Mac; wanting to promote the Mac; willing to make the Mac versions of their Windows software better than the Windows versions. And this looks like just the kind of thing they'd do. Kudos to them. But dangitall, it takes Canada to come up with something like this...
