Microsoft releases MS "Word Up" Ebonics edition of MS Word
Microsoft today announced the release of an ebonics edition of Microsoft Word. The new product, named Microsoft "Word Up" is expected to be a big seller in the inner cities. Bill Gates had this to say.
It's the first edition of the product specifically aimed at people incapable of learning to speak coherent English, but it won't be our last. If this product is as successful as we hope, look for the Southern edition, "Microsoft Bubba", to follow shortly.
