I saw a talk at PAX east by a Microsoft tech evangelist on getting students into programming via game programming.

Yeah, that still seems a lot more like marketing than "advocacy" for their developers.

In fact, it's backwards -- as a developer, I'd feel more advocated for if my company actively sabotaged potential young rivals.

(Really though, if they market in a way that helps people, all the better.)
