This film shows how far computing has come in the last few decades.

It was made in just one week using a single 3.0GHz, 8-core Intel Xeon-
based Mac Pro with a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card.

I was blown away when I watched this film.

Can Windows based systems even compete? What does the industry use?

To others: this is scat porn... spare yourself. (I was naive about
the NSFW, etc.)

It was posted by a little troll who got spanked for his trolling of
UCSM. Now all he can find to do with his sad, empty little life is to
post cross-post links like these in the hope of filling up the
newsgroups with "outraged" responses.

This is CGI generated: it is not real! Do you think that would be
feasible in real life? Who does that?

Ptomaine victims... unless you're referring to something beyond your
film's first 10 seconds... (which will have to remain among my life's
great unexplored mysteries...)

It's a hoax movie created by an Independent UK Studio. If you watch it
from start to finish you'll see why.

Why can't Apple make inroads in enteprise servers, or business application
servers? Until Apple can answer that, they're only good for a few niche
areas.

Please ignore him, he's a known homophobic troll named Chris Holland who's

If you can't ignore him, please remove u.c.s.m from the newsgroups line in

Cry me a fucking river - that's the way of the world, Apple has to provide
good reason to switch. Give me one good reason why it would be prudent for a
company that is using Microsoft Dynamics as a key part of their extranet
solutions to switch to Apple? Can't answer that one I bet.

Watch the Youtube reaction to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW0wvv6orEI


I bet you'll watch the actual clip out of curiosity like I did. Here's
some advice: don't. Never ever ever watch it. If you get other people
to watch it, video their reactions and post it on Youtube (along with
the many many other reactions)
