Screw ‘em guys, you’ve worked hard on both Windows 7 and Windows Phone 7, not to mention the soon to launch IE9 Beta, so if you want to do a little Michael Jackson Thriller or act as pallbearers you go right ahead.

Which is exactly what happened today at the Microsoft campus in Redmond. Here’s a couple of pictures from the event courtesy of MSNBC.
