In interviews with computer users, Microsoft have been asking what
people think of Vista. That is, people who've never used Vista.

According to the video on the above website, the response was largely negative.

They then showed the interviewees Vista but pretended it was called
Windows Mojave and that it was the next version of Windows. Cue lots
of "Wow, it's so cool" responses.

At the end of the video, the interviewer comes clean and, again, cue
"I gotta get it" type responses.
