Sick. I can’t get enough of people nodding in agreement. I especially enjoyed the Van Wilder character comparing the goings-on to that of ‘any good party’. I’ll be well sure to print out a host agenda next time as it helps maximise the time in which we can have wicked fun.

Frankly, I’m impressed that you made it to the one minute mark. I barely made it 20 seconds in before i found the thing so horrifyingly cringe-worthy I had to run and take a shower. Those videos are a train wreck; and not the “its so terrible, i can’t look away” kind.

I’m a MS all the freaking way. If anyone remembers X-Tree Gold from pre-windows days… that’s where I started on a computer at age 3. I played my little game where you had to pick boxes up with a truck and put them on the other platform… Then I got windows 3.1 and I was stoked! I could change my background to pink, I could still be in dos, watch Hackers with Angelina Jolie then type random stuff next to the C/: thing like “dir” and pretend I was hacking something… I could write novels in my ample spare time using word – my first book was “published” in my primary school library – a not very well plagiarized version of Thumbelina where the Characters names were Jacen and Jaina – stolen from Han Solo & Leia’s kids names… Then I got MSN and made friends in High School that I wouldn’t have other wise on account of having strict parents. I accidentally downloaded my first pornographic content in MS Cartoon chat at the age of 14. Then managed to sustain a long-distance relationship on-line until I could finish school and move to the Gold Coast and marry the bastard (which I totally did!) . But aside from my AWESOME lifes story, I grew up practically living in windows. I haven’t been perfect, MS hasn’t been perfect but we still love each other and I’ll remain faithful… so long as it’s available on Bit Torrent.

sure, those videos are pretty cringeworthy but if you want to talk about hermit crabs “made from pure embarrassment watch this video of Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer doing a skit based on “A Night At the Roxbury”

LOL! Like a bunch of Power Rangers…love it.

These videos are some kinda…well, some kinda WTF?!

I grew up on Macs, switched to PCs for price, still there. Maybe when my current laptop dies I’ll switch back.

Im a windows user and i always thought mac users were a bunch of pretentious wank biscuits but after these videos i think i might buy a mac cause i would rather be a pretentious wank biscuit than what ever these people are.

Those party goers are not drinking nearly enough. I would require some kind of cranial absinthe infusion to be able to endure a demonstration of the latest developments in task bar technology.

Maybe it chilled out as time went on, but I just remember a friend who had bought a brand new laptop shortly after Vista was released, but the computer was nigh on unusable because Vista used so much processing power. It probably worked fine for high end users, but it was a very alienating experience for those with less intensive needs/hardware…
