  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1jameswfrost - sure, send the link or the video itself to bbbreathe@gmail.com. Thanks!!

    Thank you everyone for the diggs. We did this quick and dirty, so we KNOW that the not so black background is not the best.
  • jameswfrost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1setec, I've recompressed the movie down to 7.27MB with the H.264 codec (requires Quicktime 7 to view it) and no loss of quality. I can send you that if you want to save some bandwidth!

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1If the background was completely black, it would've been perfect.

    I still liked it, dugg.
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thanks to everyone who has Dugg this story so far. 1000 Diggs in 21 hours and 31 minutes!!!
  • ndm007, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0awesome. iMovie at its best...
  • XPDude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0FUNNY! I kept laughing. LOL.
  • moorey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It wasn't iMovie - Adobe Premiere, on a PC at that.

    C'mon.. just because it's about Mac it doesn't mean it's made on a Mac.

    Well done.
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yes, it was Adobe Premiere 6.5 for the PC.
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0UPDATE #2 09/26/2005: Well, in overage fees, this would have cost me over $17,000 !!!! However, I was able to work out a deal with my web hosting company to get an unlimited bandwidth plan for $129 a month for six months. Man alive is bandwidth expensive!!!
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0trinityliu - I was using Firefox to view your blog. I loaded it in Internet Explorer and it loaded fine. Although, it is linked to an old video. We added credits onto the end of the video. Thanks for downloading!
  • stuffedstich, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol great. Dugg
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sweet. Thanks for the link terrence. We are planning on mentioning all links we find on the website. Our video is going to be featured on a very popular vidcast in a couple of days.
  • IraqManiac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yeah, now read this little story: http://digg.com/links/$17,000_bandwidth_bill_for_mentioning_my_video_on_digg.com
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0UPDATE 09/26/2005: Since posting our file on the internet in the early morning hours of 09/22/2005, the file has been downloading so many times, it used 478 Gigabytes of bandwidth. This was just in 4 days time. Unfortunately, my web hosting plan only allows for 60GB of data transfer a month. So, I am not sure how much this is going to cost me. :)
    For now, you can goto the webpage and used the mirrored links.
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0trinityliu - We don't mind at all anyone posting it on blogs, websites, ect. :) However, when I go to your blog I just see text with the tital "iPod Nano Commercial Spoof" and no links. Maybe I am loading something wrong.

    We are also working on getting the H.264 version back since we added credits.
  • craigtheguru, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nice, although I'd personally preferred a Mac SE.
  • gModo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0theres still a classroom in my high school full of thoughs, or a model slighty younger lol, at least before i graduated 2004
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The one in the video I bought a few weeks ago at a local consignment shop for $40. I upgraded the RAM, harddrive, and got a SCSI-to-ethernet jack. Its actually on the internet.
  • TrinityLiu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dude, it's so funny and creative.
    I host the file on my blog. PLS kindly to tell me if the way is not advisability...

  • greatdevourer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I know someone with one of those, along with an SE X (released as the SE/30) :D Very cool
  • neocitron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ROFLMFAO!!! i love those macintosh classics!!!!! i have one in my room collecting dust, what an antique!
    oh and i'd like to say that the new H.264 codec absolutely pwnz every other codec i've ever seen... small size and dope quality
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hey Setec.. your video was featured @ the end of today's episode of Rocketboom!

  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0My brother (oanorth) and I went to the King of Prussia, PA Apple Store today and had the video running on the 30 inch screen next to another one running the commercial. Some of the Apple employees found the video amusing and "cool."
  • jameswfrost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow!
  • summerset, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good job... a nice surprise to see something funny linked here.
  • DeepNarcosis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Now Kevin's going to have to do another subsystm on the Mac II!
  • awfulshot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol. better than i thought it would be.
  • spyhunter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0setec - I would suggest not giving away the joke by removing the screenshot and the text explaining it. I think that would make it funnier when you first watch it. Anyway, great job :) I like the black adjusted one better.
  • bunkka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0BOH! This is great...Classic. Was laughing from start to finish.
  • billygreen23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0great work!
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The WMV file is rather poor quality. Working on an AVI version.
  • dvdcr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i didnt like it...
  • setec, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Midnightbrewer - Yeah, whatever you want to correct is fine with us! :) Thanks. bbbreathe@gmail.com
  • Jazza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Brilliant :)

    deepnarcosis, that's a brilliant idea, I've never seen inside a Mac II ;) Kevin, can you work on it?
  • jameswfrost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0turbo2ltr - You can also get Quicktime Alternative. It's basically Quicktime plugins for Media Player Classic. I don't know if they support H.264 yet or not. http://www.codecguide.com/
  • RCola, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Funny stuff. Dugg.
