When coloring in 800,000 pixels on a map of India, Microsoft colored eight of them a different shade of green to represent the disputed Kashmiri territory.

This map entitled, "An Accurate Map of India" hails from Thomas Mortimer's "Atlas of Trade and Commerce", published in London in 1767. Many of the maps in this series were based upon the "Sieur Robert Atlas", published in Paris between 1750 and 1765. George Rollos was the London geographer responsible for adapting the maps for an English audience as well as making any necessary changes based upon new discoveries or changing political divisions. Rollos ... engraved the majority of the maps, with Gibson and others engraving the remainder. Some of the larger maps were folded in order to be place in the Atlas.
