- Microsoft disappointed it’s Live Cashback users today who woke up early to find a ‘Server Timeout’ message instead of the ’search engine that pays you back’ (the page is still down at 1:45pm PST)
- Microsoft, who’s search volume has been rising over the last two months, was expecting a big day from Black Friday shoppers looking to use Live Search Cashback to save even more money off of online purchases.
- No word yet from Microsoft on what the problem has been all day. This does not speak well for the team who is becoming ever more dependent on the idea of storing information in the cloud. If they can’t even have their own web businesses live, how can I rely on my online files being there when I need them? Big mistake today fellas.

- Apple’s global Black Friday sale has gotten off to a weak start in New Zealand and Australia.
- Why is it weak? Well for starters the discount is only available for the iMac and MacBook computers. Secondly, the discount only knocks off $100 for higher powered Macbook Pro or iMac models and only $50 for lower powered machines. Even less for the suite of iPod’s and accessories. I’m sure I could find my old college ID somewhere and get the same discount as that.
- This is bad news for Apple if this discount spreads to the US Black Friday Sales, where analysts were expecting Apple to knock off 15% for most Mac products.
- With such dismal discounts, Apple is taking a big risk that they will be able to keep sales high through this holiday season. I’m Bearish on Apple for this winter.
