This is the first time I've ever seen something before EVER on NN.

That's gotta be fake... right?

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!

Sadly, no, that's really Steve Ballmer, and that's really a Windows commercial. Remember, this was the 80's when people would buy anything if you yelled loud enough. We've evolved since then, thankfully. Now people will buy anything with shiny stuff.

The crappier the product, the louder you need to yell.

There's an equation for this sort of thing...

Either that or the ad wasn't meant to be taken as seriously as you're taking it.
