Microsoft's ad push for its new Windows 7 operating system breaks tonight, and this time, instead of relying on Bill Gates, Jerry Seinfeld or a raft of other celebrities, ad agency Crispin Porter & Bogusky is using good, old-fashioned PR from magazines and bloggers to plug the product.

Windows 7, the long-awaited follow up to Windows Vista, is slated for worldwide release Oct. 22. The marketing push behind the product begins tonight with a 30-second TV commercial that breaks during the CW's prime-time premiere of "Vampire Diaries."

The spot, plainly dubbed "Good News," aims to harness third-party credibility and share with consumers a slew of positive Windows 7 product reviews penned by outlets such as CNET, Gizmodo, Maximum PC and the Seattle Times.
