Video evidence of a Windows 3.1 Launch Party from October 1992. [confused about this launch party stuff now. Is this a real fake ad, or is Microsoft just being incredibly meta?]

This montage of AT&T ads came from a 1993 Newsweek CD-ROM, when Newsweek thought that one day, magazines would be sent to you in CD-ROM form, sponsored with ads. It's an interesting view of the future.
