[German<\/a>]Nice surprise for people living in London (GB). There are taxis driving around with advertisements on the roof. The display boards are controlled by Windows – and there are nice Blue Screens of Dead, with which the taxis advertise the product from Redmond. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Windows is everywhere in daily life, from the desktop to the refrigerator to the cash or ticket machine. Even Windows for cars is already being considered – and sneering tongues sometimes think that you have to do a quick update and defragment the starter before starting your journey. I would never say something like that – it all works. And the days when we saw photos of big screens that were forced to be updated to Windows 10 are also pass\u00e9 since summer 2016. <\/p>\n

London's black Cabs and the BlueScreens<\/h2>\n

I came across this article<\/a> on The Register yesterday about this issue. On London's streets you can probably see black taxis with an attachment on the roof to display advertising. The advertisements are dynamically fed in from a Windows computer.  <\/p>\n
