Compare this funny video from the Microsoft Mac Business Unit with this contrived "funeral" for the Blackberry and iPhone elsewhere in Microsoft by the Windows Phone 7 team:
Both celebrating a "release to manufacturing" of a product. Fun and light versus morbid and contrived. It's at once a fitting metaphor for the struggle between Apple and the non-MacBU Microsoft.
UPDATE: I love this quote from John Gruber at Daring Fireball:
Microsoft has never been cool, has never had good taste, but their lack of cool and lack of taste are spiraling out of control.
