 If the person who made the video is still employed by Microsoft then they
might have a crumb of humor left.  I've yet to see a Microsoft TV ad that
didn't make their products seem like work

Well, it's clearly a B2B ad (never a fertile ground for humour or deft
juxtapositions) and so one wouldn't expect MS to show a sense of humour.
OTOH ... they do have one when they want to have a laugh at themselves.  I
understand that this was actually put together by MS's agency specifically
for internal MS humour -- and it shows that some people really don't mind
poking fun at themselves and having a good time doing it.
