- generalleoff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0He isn't using the mouse in an "awkward" way because he does not know how to use it. He did that so he would not block the mouse from view and so he would not block the computer from view. That shot was badly composed :)
Old ass computer commercials are cool though so someone should find more. I'm still looking for one that beats Balmer advertising Windows 1.0. - 06metzp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Riding his new Apple Lisa?
- kinkydan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Bandwidth exceeded. :(

- spark, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0They did not leave the keyboard out. It's a LISA. Look at the video again. It's there.
- tarun, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0capajc--when its Apple all rules go out of the window :)
This is slow--sweet memories of dialup. - harpastum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0good stuff. This commercial and more at http://lookingforpioneers.ath.cx/Commercials.htm
- capajc, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1So...is a 22-yr-old video considered old news?
- pcdoc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0LOL.. I remember that comercial. I'm getting old!
- Yankees368, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Please don't post to a broken mirror
- trunkster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nothing like Kevin Costner riding his bike, his dog, and his new Apple Lisa.
- Boondoggle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Did you see the handkerchief in his back pocket? Red on the right side... that is supposed to mean something in certain circles I think.... Did we just "out" Kevin Costner?
- dhughes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0 My god...that's so 80's. It's scary. The sweater around his neck is the scariest thing of all! Yes people used to do that and think it was cool. The horror.
- atrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Downloaded the whole thing, couldnt stream, so had to get the acual file. AGAIN.
the point:
I had to download twice, so stop complaining! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0> Just look at the way he is holding the mouse
> and how foreign it seems to him.
...just like his acting. yeah. I see it. - Omicron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0wish there was a mirror of that video. looks pretty good.
the "foreign mouse" talk reminds me of a user i had a couple years ago. 30something woman who literally used her mouse upside down because when she first used one, no one showed her how to use it. very odd. what do you expect though, she was a former Seahawks cheerleader. =) - Wuggawugga, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0http://spherule.com/media/video/apple_lisa_kevin_costner_1983.mpg
- da_bradler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0funny how the computer lisa was as much of a mistake as steve jobs kid lisa
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I had the exact same thought as Moose Head -- not to mention how ruddy rude it is when the other poor guy has just been cleaning the floor, and in comes The Costner, riding his bike and dog all over the show. What a git.I hope he chokes on his breakfast.
- DarkCastle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thank God the Lisa tanked so Macintosh could be born.
- thatsiebguy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0And that kids, is why Apple mice have ONE button!
- mkjones, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Its the left handed thing that makes the mouse look wierd.
PLUS the lack of a keyboard, god knows why they missed that out?
Anyway, "I'l be home for breakfast" - Marcelo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I remember the days when the only game I had on my computer was Hangman...in full 3 color glory! (which by the way had to be run from a 5.25" floppy since I had no hard drive!)
- deckardrun, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0LOL. He knew his bitch would call him.
- craftmatick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It looks like the video link is dead...
- Moose_Head, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Why did he just leave his bike in the hall like that? I'm Kevin Costner the price of the world and I can leave my crap where ever I want!
- mightymouse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0LOL
- baaron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks for the mirror..too funny..hell sleep with his dog tonight and

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0> And that kids, is why Apple mice have ONE button!
Yeah... and ever since the hockey puck, just having one button just wasn't enough... Nooo... Apple had to go all plinth on the concept of the mouse, making the entire fscking upper surface one huge mouse button a la some obscure lever somewhere that it shouldn't be. This is the most serious usability error that Apple has made since monochrome graphics.
This, kids, is why no one company should be trusted to make *EVERY* part of your computer. Diversity is good and, while it may mean that your computer doesn't match your davenport, it does mean lower prices, higher quality, better over all design at the component level and most importantly CHOICE (freedom, liberty... whatever you want to call it).
This, Apple's current mouse, is *THE* justification and business case for beige box OS x86. People need to wake the fsck up, smell the coffee and realize that Steve jobs is a Style Dictator, not an accomplished businessman. - outerspaceapple, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0teh digg effect!
- themacboy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0When this loads it better be better that waterworld or I'm asking for my bandwidth back!
