This may come across the wrong way but am I the only one who wonders about these "unboxing" videos.

I can understand the people's excitement of getting a new computer but creating a video of it. Its just a computer. I mean do we see unboxing videos of someone's new dishwasher, or tv?

edit: what I do find interesting is the articles about the computer and/or the disassembly videos that show up on ifixit because they show you how the computer was built and what components it uses.

I must admit that I am going to watch the video.
Me going to watch it, hmmm... not sure if that speaks more to my extreme dorkiness or that of the video creator.
In this instance though the reason that I am even going to see the video is because I have a 15 inch unibody macbook pro, and I wanted the 17, but alas it was not avail.
So I being a big mac fan will watch the video in envy until I can sell mine or become insanely rich
