In what world? I've just started using it at work, and I swear the other day it tried to sell me an XBox controller. Not like I was on the Web and an ad popped up, no. It was part of the operating system!
Can you imagine going back in time 10 years and telling somebody "In the future, Microsoft is going to put pop-up ads in Windows." People would think you were crazy!

A company tried that in 1999/2000, just before the dot com bust.
You got a $500 PC for free, but were locked into a contract with an ISP and had to spend 10 hours a week on the PC, and 1/3 of the screen was ads at all times.
We're moving in that direction, but nothing is free.
Oh, schnaps! I remember that.
