Mommy, Why is There a Server in the House?
Geen grap: het boek met de onheilspellende titel bestaat echt en is te koop via bijv. Amazon. Lees verder onder het plaatje.
Een van de reviews op Amazon:
Only a collector of Microsoft memorabilia would want to buy this book. If this sells, it will signal to advertisers worldwide that if they disguise their sales literature cleverly enough, rubes will buy it.
That said, this book is part of a very clever $10 million ad campaign for the Windows Home Server made by HP. The book, by a fictitious psychologist, can be read in its entirely at stayathomeserver.com. The site uses fake news clips and the book to promote the idea that servers aren't just office equipment, but make sense in a home that features multiple computers, Xboxes, and other networked technology.
