What if Apple had conducted the Mojave Experiment?

In watching the many negative blog posts and comments about Microsoft’s “Mojave Experiment” — designed to try to distinguish perception from reality around Vista — I can’t help but wonder how different the take would be if it were Apple doing the same kind of marketing campaign.

Windows Codenamed Mojave Closer to Vista SP1 than Even Windows 7

Windows codenamed Mojave is just around the corner and closer to Windows Vista Service Pack 1 than even Windows 7. The Reason for this is that Windows 7 is merely an evolution of the latest Windows client, while Windows codenamed Mojave is actually 100% Vista.

Windows "Mojave" Experiment Hits The Web

Well, we've all heard about the Mojave experiment, Microsoft's scheme to show people who stuck with XP how great Vista really is. After demoing Mojave to the consumers, they were then told that it was actually Windows Vista. The site below shows clips that were taken during the experiment.

Windows ˜Mojave Video Posts

Chris Flores: Last week we showed a video of the Mojave Experiment to a small group of folks here on campus. Today we are excited to share the results with the public.



For those new to the Mojave Experiment, it's a focus group effort we initiated a few weeks ago. We interviewed and polled 120 participants in San Francisco, in hopes of better understanding everyday users' perceptions of Windows Vista and seeing whether there really is a gap between perception and reality. We wanted to see how people reacted to Windows Vista when they were not aware they were seeing Windows Vista. We recorded our discussions, and today you can see them for yourself.

Mojave Experiment Updated

Microsoft's Mojave Experiment involved showing Vista to skeptical users whilst tricking them into thinking it was a new version of Windows and recording their reactions.

David Webster who came up with the idea for the experiment has posted about an update to the Mojave website which is now showing the demos subjects were shown. The site features Silverlight heavily and presents videos in a zoomable "cloud".

More Windows Mobile 7 screenshots emerge with Zune UI

WMPoweruser has posted some more alleged screenshots of Windows Mobile 7. The screenshots Neowin sighted earlier showed the Today Screen and the Maps utility. The new screenshots shown below, give us a picture of Windows Mobile Marketplace, IM and Zune, possibly from the Windows Mobile 7 UI. Unlike the earlier screenshots which had a date of October 16, these screenshots reveal no such date details, so as to give away the time this UI was devised and tested. If these screenshots are from Windows Mobile 7, then the Zune UI confirms the recent rumor that Zune is indeed coming to Windows Mobile 7.

Is Microsoft's Mojave Vista experiment backfiring with users?

Is a new marketing campaign what Vista really needs? The first stages of it -- already under way with the Mojave Experiment -- are certainly drawing attention to Vista. But in ignoring Vista's problems, could the campaign also be backfiring?..

Microsoft looks to 'Mojave' to revive Vista's image

After months of searching for ways to defend its oft-maligned Windows operating system, Microsoft may just have found its best weapon: Vista's skeptics.



Spurred by an e-mail from someone deep in the marketing ranks, Microsoft last week traveled to San Francisco, rounding up Windows XP users who had negative impressions of Vista. The subjects were put on video, asked about their Vista impressions, and then shown a "new" operating system, code-named Mojave. More than 90 percent gave positive feedback on what they saw. Then they were told that "Mojave" was actually Windows Vista.

Mojave experiment gets a Web site

Evidently spurred on by the reception it got at Thursday's financial analysts meeting, Microsoft has decided to move ahead with plans to turn the Mojave project into a full-fledged Windows Vista marketing effort.



As first reported by CNET News, Microsoft last week interviewed XP users who were skeptical of Vista and showed them what it called a secret new version of Windows, "Mojave." It was in fact Vista. The results, according to Microsoft executives, were almost universally positive, with participants expressing surprise when told it was actually Vista they had been using.



For now, Microsoft has put up a teaser site, with plans to show the actual video footage next week.

Leaked Google OS Screenshots?

Screenshots have surfaced of the suspected Google Chrome OS, without any reliable source or confirmation to back up the claims. The six leaked screen shots show what could possibly be the very first screenshots of the new developer's beta operating system. The beta is labeled 0.1.15 in one of the screenshots, showing the early stages of the operating system. If proven real, the screenshots indicate a Mac OS X spin on things from Google, showing a dock in the screenshot, rather than having a taskbar like Microsoft Windows does.
