Banana George and Microsoft help Victims of 911.

Banana George recently participated in an internal Microsoft marketing event in conjunction with the launch of the new Microsoft� Windows� XP operating system in NYC.  The event was aimed at capturing Windows XP in Amazing Places,and what could be more amazing than "booting up" with Banana George?

For each photo entry in the Amazing Places contest Microsoft made a donation to the victims of 911 relief efforts.

Banana, a long-time New York resident, was pleased to participate in this effort along with famous sports figures, politicians, actors, astronauts and myriad other amazing people.

Banana George, the 86-year-old king of
barefoot water-skiing, knows a thing or two
about "yes you can," the Windows XP theme.
 

Special thanks to photographers Lynn Novakofski and Rick Wallerich.
