Microsoft will give a smartphone, tablet and computer to each employee

No joke, working for Microsoft is really a privilege. And the company itself strongly supports this view. Today, the company said “Thank you!” To all its permanent employees (and there are more than 90,000 people), announcing that they presented EVERYONE three gifts at once - a smartphone on Windows Phone 8, a Microsoft Surface tablet on Windows RT and a new computer with Windows 8 (desktop, laptop or ultrabook to choose from).

The announcement was made by Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer at the company's annual meeting in Seattle. And the gifts themselves will be given as they are released - a tablet and a smartphone closer to December, and a computer, probably a little earlier.


Sorry for the picture, there was supposed to be about the Dark Side and the cookies. Friday after all.

In fact, making almost 100,000 Microsoft evangelists in three dimensions at once is a really great idea.

Best Company meeting. Ever. - Twitter employees write.

I note that this is not the first distribution of gifts to employees - in 2010, Microsoft distributed smartphones to Windows Phone 7 to employees, but the biggest one.
