Yet another one of the same “genre”, still pretty effective. Can help but wonder if there is one waiting for the Vista official release(!?). I know I wouldn’t miss the chance.
Bill Gates unfortunate demo October 22, 2006

Another one of those huge mishaps presenting in-frond of a live audience and on TV “windows media center” … well hoping to… and hoping… and nothing in the end.
The only reason to feel good for something like that is the numerous times that as windows users we had to put up with such mishaps ourselves.

Well a bit discriminate to be honest, but that’s all – just a tiny bit actually. Aside of some personal comments on Bill Gates himself so much more is so true and typical of the great MS that we all know (especially windows users) and “hate”(?). Though evil maybe not, tasteless as stated herein oh yes indeed,and in more than one ways.
Reconsidering my above on Mr. Gates, I have to admit he has produced some major “goofs”, I mean no batteries on the remote(!?) and you got to love the Macintosh statement (honest man though).
And another thought that just dawned on me, isn’t it strange that most of this type of videos are created by mac users (like the infamous “macuser” who’s behind this one) even though windows users have suffered the most of MS hastes and policies?
the fate of net neutrality laws… October 22, 2006

… and the people that rule on them. Funny or scary? somehow probably both, watch it and decide.
What if the legislator who will likely determine the fate of net neutrality laws over the next 20 years actually does not know anything about the internet? Scary enough, it’s actually true.

Firefox second place winner Ad October 22, 2006

Better than the first place winner of the Firefox Flicks Video Contest IMHO, at least conceptualy. Don’t take my word for it, watch it and see for yourself. I still haven’t gone through all of the 200 + clips (!) that participated but this one stood out among the top ten group.
You can watch them all and vote for your favorites at http://www.firefoxflicks.com/ (let me know of any exceptional ones you discover, thanks).
By the way if you’re not using Firefox… well it’s a very good solid browser, but that’s not what I meant to say – If you’re still using Internet Explorer click here and pls reconsider (and that’s got nothing to do with MS being the evil empire and all that jazz, not that they aren’t at least one of those out there).
Apple Intel Mac “spoofed” commercial October 22, 2006

This is not the original apple ad, but a hilarious remake (spoof). So what happens when you put an Intel processor in a Mac? Watch it to the end to get the idea. Maybe a glimpse into the future?

PC and a Mac. Who is better? Well that’s not the time or place for this age long controversy, but though a PC user myself got to admit Mac ads are more than often brilliant. Here are 6 of the 2006 series in one clip.
