For heavens' sake, everyone, this isn't a documentary, it's a TELEVISION
COMMERCIAL. There's nothing here that TV ads haven't been doing for fifty
years. 

It may surprise y'all to learn that the Mac girl didn't actually hurl a
sledgehammer into a giant screen in 1984, that MS didn't actually spend ALL
of its money on marketing Vista rather than improving it, and that John
Hodgman doesn't actually hide in a pizza box to trap unwary college
students.

The basic fact it presents WRT Mac appears to be accurate. Can you walk into
an Apple store and walk out with a big screen laptop for $1,000, or not?

(Anyway, the video is inconclusive as to whether or not Lovely Lauren went
into the Mac store. Is it possible that Balding Guy walked into AND OUT OF
the Mac store at the same time as Lauren? Yes or no? Maybe he's a stalker or
an O'Reilly producer.)
