I hope everyone who participated in the production
this thing was taken out to a remote field and shot --
especially the director :-P who deserves a whole
belt of ammunition.... The "instructor" team is
hokey...but the behavior and reactions of the two
tech-support "students" (idiot-like facial expressions,
and head gestures) are just plain insipid.

What's scary, is the information on the youtube page indicates
that MS actually DISTRIBUTED this garbage to VAR's...and scarier
still is that business people actually bought into it.
