I think this could be a really funny movie. I don't know about anybody else but I was laughing at "We call it the iPod. Lowercase I, uppercase p, lowercase o, lowercase d. Write that down."
Actually, it was "I'm a Mac"... but close enough. You get a brownie!
Edit... I see you are quoting the clip. Nevermind!
I'm not taking it seriously. Seriously. It's supposed to be a parody or mockumentary yet I just didn't find it to be all that funny. It's like it wasn't quite sarcastic enough or the acting was a little too serious to be taken as intentionally overly dramatic. Like at the end when he screams "I am Apple!" ... I know that's supposed to be funny yet I didn't laugh. The only time I cracked a smile was they were rattling off all the adjectives to describe him really quickly.

It seems that this damn story is taking me to the video and interrupting my music on my iPhone using Safari. This music interruption can occur even when not being sent to the.video.
Not impressed with Justin Long

No. His career was not created by Apple.
And he's an actor. He got paid to do his job. And now he's doing another job (literally).
Do you hold the same distaste for Woz or Guy Kawasaki or others that were so invested in Apple?
swish!
Not... Getting... It...
They delivered on their promise.
(I've got to admit, it looked pretentious and forced. Not funny.)

"You've got to ride the wave of the future"
"What if I am the wave of the future?"
This is going to be fantastic.

The best parodies are the ones that play it seriously. See Spinal Tap for a good example.
