You quoted funny as if I shouldn't find it funny, but when that shrink ray blew up...

Thanks for the spoiler.

Even Apple's hastily thrown together tour of their antenna facility was sexier than this. Wow.

I've never seen someone so awkward in front of a green screen before.

I can relate relate to the thickness of a hair but I can't relate to the size of a red blood cell so... If Mr Bohr ia an average sized 1.8 metres tall and is only a little smaller than the diameter of the hair after the first shrinkage that means that after the second shrinkage where he's 100 nm tall that the hair is about 1000 times wider than that. I calculate it would take him a good 20 minutes to walk past the end of the hair and in his world this chip is about the size of a pool table

Fancy a geek being awkward in front of a camera :)

Actually I thought he was fine

I really enjoyed it, I don't think he was awkwards either, but that he's older and see's this video kinda thingamajig different to us whippersnappers.

I watched it all, and I learnt a lot from it. I'd've not watched a dry/marketing video on a new processor technology.

This video is a serious contender to Microsoft's Windows 7 House Party ad and their Songsmith ad.

add.: why does everyone hanging around here have a stick or two up their wazoo? Not a soul will fail to notice how truly ridiculous this video is in the same lovely way the Songsmith ad is, but why is one not allowed to mention this in jest without getting slammed over it? Breathtaking... :)

I thought it was great. The guy clearly stayed within his personality and explained things clearly. How sexy do you want 3d transistors to be?
