Microsoft has really out done themselves this time. Out of all the companies in the world leave it to Microsoft to predict your future with Zoltar…and surprisingly they developed it to be very amusing.
You just have to enter in the name of the person that you want it to predict the future for and it will quickly tell you what lies ahead of them. After it predicts the future of the person that you requested it will give you an option to download Windows Live Messenger or to send the fortune to a friend.
If that starts to get boring just leave Zoltar sit there and things will start to happen. I have noticed a boat and limo “driving” along the ground as well as clouds floating in the sky.
I did a quick check to see if this was really made by Microsoft and looking at the WHOIS information it looks legit. Microsoft deserves a little credit for throwing something amusing into the mix of things they have created.
Thanks to the anonymous tipster who sent this in!
P.S. I’m going to be a sod farmer according to Zoltar.

According to Zoltar. Am going to be first doctor to do brain transplant and be world famous. I could live with that future
Looks like you might make more money than me since I am just a sod farmer.
I too am destined to be a sod farmer.
I shall be a world famous painter…
Maybe we can team up and put all the rest of the sod farmers out of business.
I am destined to need plastic surgery after having an incident with a retired rodeo clown and a mechanical bull…
Fortunately, I will be married to a plastic surgeon, who will give me the discount rate, making having reconstructive surgery less…painful. 
Funny. At least MS has a sense of humor now. Maybe that sheds some light onto the future…
I figured out how it works. It compares the first letters and number of letters in the first and last names to a database. That is why John Smith and Jack Stein both end up buying boats in the future.
So, OldManDeath’s name is R*** W*****?
Your a genius!
Zoltar tells me I’m climbing Mount Everest and I’m taking friends with! Anyone care to join?
Too cold for my tastes…of course I consider any under 80 degrees cold
Zoltar - wasn’t that the same fortune telling dude from Tom Hank’s BIG movie?
Yes, Zoltar is originally from Big. There are several other Zoltar products out there that are based on the movie.
Also, a correction on my second post. While what I stated in there is true, apparently MS couldn’t come up with enough fortunes, so some combinations use the same fortune. That means that if two people get the same fortune, that does not mean that they have the same first letter/number of letters combination.
BTW, MS could make this better by using first and last characters. This would give much more specific results, and make it harder for people like me to figure out how it works. I guess we’ll have to leave that up to Apple
