Anyone know how he managed

Anyone know how he managed to have that many OS's running simultaneously?

i spotted mac osx, windows xp pro twice i think, and fedora, they can't all be vmware windows surely?

»

OS X is the host OS. He's

OS X is the host OS. He's using the Mac Remote Desktop client to connect to an XP Pro box (or it could be Server 2003), and some program with a tape reel and a microphone for the icon I think to connect to the webserver. The only other Windows I saw was Sales Dude's Windows 98 box which Web Guy connected to via the XP/2003 machine. There doesn't appear to be any virtualization software running.

Now can anyone identify that tape reel icon? That's the only one I can't identify.

that icon would be for the

that icon would be for the Audio Hijack app... strange choice, but it's possible..

»

Can totally relate

I sent this to our entire Systems group at work and everybody's talking about it. We can relate to so much of it. Very well done and extremely funny!!

Thanks!

I love this video. I found

I love this video. I found it a while back and it's still funny.

"There is no arrange by

"There is no arrange by penis..." - Oh my god. I know nothing about you guys, but I'm guessing at least most of you are or have been sysadmin professionals. I mean, it looks and sounds just like my IT department. Hey, you haven't been poking around my site, have you?

Most excellent.

LOL

This is the funniest video i have seen in a loooong time. I showed it to my girlfriend and she was like..... "I dont get it" YOu have to be IT to appreciate this genius. I will be willling to contribute to a part 2. Anything i can do to be a part of this would be amazing.

»

Genius

My password will now be "a". Too bloody funny, I wept! There so needs to be a sequel.

»

This is the best video I

This is the best video I have seen in a longggggg time. I have to laugh now going through Service Strategy Training every time they bring up asking for assistance

»

It would be funny, except...

I think you are all missing the fundamental message of the video, every time the Sales guy calls the Web Guy he always fucks something up. It's not the Sales guy's job to be a computer whiz, he's busy MAKING MONEY FOR THE COMPANY!!! Something Web Dude will never fucking do because he is too busy basking in his own geek glory. Hey I know, label the fucking computer systems at the datacenter so you don't have to reboot two of them to find the right one! Maybe if he wasn't busy torquing his Johnson instead of working then he would know that the website is not down and that the caller just needs some brief and easy assistance...just kidding, I'm in IT and this video fucking ROCKS!!!!

Skype

AMAZING video. Never gets old, even after watching it 20+ times!

How did you get skype to open in that little window for each call?

»

you made me laugh so much I cryed

This is really good.

Can someone let me know what

Can someone let me know what program "web dude" is using to move between program? I noticed none of his applications show up in his start bar, and his method of moving between applications looks pretty slick (looks different from a regular Win XP alt + tab) so I'm guessing he's got some sort of gui sitting on top. I'm dying to know what it is!

Thanks,
R

the suits need to be told

Absolutely loved it!

Guys, this was hysterical!

Guys, this was hysterical! As an IT and helpdesk guy, I can certainly empathize with the types of calls (maybe not the Halo playing, but it's still frickin' funny!). I join everyone else in asking for more! Good job!

accident

i pissed my pants from laughing so hard. That made history!

Don't know if anyone has

Don't know if anyone has gone over to the Sales Guy Simulator or not... but you need to go there, and click on the icon for cold calls... Call the number that is listed!!!! That's dedication for ya!

»

Fucking amazing!

This is the best geek humor video I've ever seen.

I'm the first, and second to last, line of tech support @ our company.

Therefore:

Your theme song is now the ringtone on my jailbroken work phone.

You guys kick ass! I can't wait for the next one.

Just one request. Can we get a high rez version of the penis background image??? It looks like shit stretched across my nice, high rez LCDs. (Using it anyway though!!!)

Thanks a million,

Dragon

Skypeee

Someone get me a link to that version of Skype. I have Skype, I just want that version cuz it looks leet, and I don't know what its called.

Although i have a feeling that its because of the Mac software, but I'm not sure.
[[I run WindowzXP]]
