In Response To: The Cortana Picture Analysis (Charles D. Clifford)
WoW
We sure have come a long ways since MacWorld. Is this really the Cortana? Matt, can you share the changes to this person over the years?

: Hey Matt you choose really deep screen shots. In the case that you did not
: choose it then applause to the one who did. Okay I'm going to go into a
: deep analysis of the Cortana picture. First thing is that we need to
: realize that this is Cortana. For obvious reasons like that you can tell
: that you are still on the Pillar of Autumn. You’re at a point where things
: are not blowing up so you are obviously at the point where you get Cortana
: (I'll prove this later). Just look at her, she is a projection on a view
: screen that is made up what looks like Binary, Also she's got blue eyes.
: So please take for granted that this is Cortana. Also I would appreciate
: it if replies to this email didn't talk about this not being Cortana. Now
: that that issue is out of the way then I can get to some business. In this
: scene you get Cortana but what also happens is that Cortana tells you that
: the pillar of Autumn is going to be abandoned, where the landing zone is,
: also that they have decided to deploy to Halo. You ask why I know this.
: Are you breaking an NDA? To this I answer that I have just remembered what
: Matt has said “Unfortunately they are all 50-megabyte TIFFs and converting
: them into something easily downloaded over the net is turning out to be a
: problem. Half the fun of a Halo screenshot is the ability to zoom in and
: see the ridiculous level of detail involved.” He is talking about screen
: shots; he said that on the September 14th update. So I saw that picture so
: I zoomed in every where and this is what I saw. Next to Cortana’s hip is a
: picture of Halo with its closest planet, the current position of the
: Pillar of Autumn, The flight path that the escape pod will be talking
: and/or drop ships, and the location of the Landing zone. Then in front of
: Cortana’s left leg there is a picture of the Landing zone on halo it shows
: a portion of Halo highlighted with the words “Landing Zone” in green and
: the word “Hazardous” in red. To the left of that picture is a picture of
: the Landing Zone from a different point of view with the planet in the
: background. I think that covers it. I’m amazed by the level of detail they
: put in. If you take the picture by Cortana’s hip and you notice the
: position of the pillar of autumn and the position of Halo it matches up
: with what you see out of the window. Please mention anything else that you
: notice in this pic. I want this thread to stay on topic and if you don’t
: think this is Cortana then I’ll admit that it is the other Female AI on
: the ship (yes I know there is only one). To see all of this I used windows
: picture and fax viewer, it has a zoom in capability. My video card is a
: Geforce 3. So if you think my interpretation of the words in the bottom
: picture is incorrect then please tell me what you think they say also list
: what you viewed this in and what your video card is.
