Windows 7 Launch Party Kit Hides Worst Birthday Party Ever
What’s inside the Windows 7 Launch Party Kit? Balloons, streamers and no cake. Oh right, they stuck a copy of Windows 7 in there, too.
The box itself.
The contents of the box itself. Note the inclusion of playing cards and a puzzle. These will be collector’s items when Ballmer dies.
This looks like a poster, but we believe it to be the “table top centerpiece”. Some third world manufacturer took Microsoft for a ride on that mark-up.
One tote bag. Actually, I’d gladly carry around my yuppie organic groceries in this thing.
Ohh, now the good stuff. We’re talking four streamers, some balloons and cute Win 7 cocktail napkins. What, no piñata?
On the plus side, you do score a free copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. That awesome token basically puts all of our petty comments to rest. [Thanks Rico!]

I got my “Party Pack” 2 days ago… and I think something went wrong with my packing… I got 8 tote bags, 1 poster thing, 1 pack of cards and Win7… No streamers or balloons… What gives Microsoft? Do you want this to be a party or not?
@ Tristan – Same here, I got the exact same pack, but I got a puzzle as well.. strange? either way, we all know the most valuable thing that we all received came in that sleek little black sleeve!
I reckon this is an interesting way of getting the product out there and seen, but it relies heavily on peoples dedication to the House Party thing, so lets hope most party hosts do their jobs!
