    Does a Black Guy Belong in This Ad? Microsoft Can't Decide.

    If you speak English, Microsoft's IT tools will please your entire, diverse staff, including that nice, dark-skinned gentleman with the laptop. If you speak Polish, don't worry about that guy! Photoshop can un-diversify your board room.

    Based on the white/black fellow's visible, hand, and the blurred building where the black guy's head was replaced by the white guy's head, we'd say the black guy was Photoshopped out rather than vice versa. But either way, couldn't Microsoft just spring for some fresh clip art, which would at least be less obvious? As Engadget writes, the software company really does suck at Photoshop.
