Check out this video of a robot playing Volleyball, well sort of.  While the robot doesn’t exactly have the talent to play along with Tom Cruise in Top Gun, or even with Screech in those summer beach house episodes of Saved By The Bell, it uses an iSight camera and a Mac mini to get […]

There’s a little note on the side, under the volume toggle—”Hello […]

Check out this pretty amusing video depicting what a Microsoft created “I’m a PC” ad would look like.  The sound and picture quality isn’t all that great, but it was a High School student project shot and edited in 1 day.  I think it has some comedic gems, and production quality aside, it’s well-done.  Enjoy!

Is it just me, or are these commercials getting a bit repetitive.  “Meet abc, they want a computer for less than x amount.  We told them, ‘you find it, we buy it.‘” Then cut to them looking at a Mac before making a dismissive comment about the price.  Rinse and repeat. This commercial might be […]
