RX-8 Ad Comes with Windows XP

I found an ad in a pic while cleaning files off my computer. Windows XP comes with pic files already under "My Pictures." In the "Big City" file there is an RX-8 ad in one of the pics. Its not the center piece, but I just thought that it was kind of interesting that it was there.

theres only 4 files that come preloaded in XP in the "My Pictures" folder. Blue Hills, Sunset, Water lillies, and Winter. Nothing called "Big City". You must have downloaded that at some point in time.

I cant believe that you looked that close. It actually comes with Windows XP Professional. I have it on my work computer, but not on my home computer. The advertisement is right under the walk sign in the center:

I doubt the pic came with xp too...but that looks out of the states...so maybe the pic comes from a foreign copy of xp?

where are you from?

Coincidental?

Or is it some conspiracy between Mazda and Bill Gates?

Maybe that's why no one can hack into the ECU properly and reliably.

The pic did come with Windows XP Professional sold in the USA. Just like it came with two folders called "Scenic," "Sample Pictures," and a couple individual pics of flowers.

I've noticed that before too, pretty funny, I had to do a double take when I first saw it.
