Interesting, not only is it a stock photo but it's from Getty Images! Why is that interesting? Because Getty Images is the only real competitor to Corbus and Corbus is owned by... someone named Bill Gates :-}
Oh yeh and Getty Images was founded by Mark Getty... the Heir to the J.P. Getty oil fortune. The moguls of two centuries duke it out.
AP covered the story...
Hah! That is a neat screw-up - when promoters get carried away. Nice peer-to-peer sleuthing work by the collective of computer users, probably with a predisposed bias against Microsoft.
found this on commonme
Apple Japan's Switch Ads ;-)
I am sure Micosoft purchased the photo from Getty. Can someone like Gates grab images off the web just like us.
