The Jets and the Sharks it ain't, but this musical slasher-fest seems to get to the heart of the Mac vs. PC debate. I won't deny that I enjoy the MacBook Air as katana, but I think it's the final message that's really important: can't we all just get along?
Update: There is some over-the-top blood and guts gore in the clip.

I don't like it. There was no indication it was going to go in that direction. And there was nothing clever about that. Lame x10.

View discretion advised?
Gore = not funny at work

That was surprisingly gory. Especially the face-smashing part. A little tough to watch actually. Otherwise it was okay. But really just okay.

The gore was a little excessive and the vocals were weak, but it was definitely very well produced.

People can take this all too seriously, but I thought it was excellent!

The part that scared me most was when they REALLY dropped an Air on the ground!

Don't worry - it's SSD

I liked it, although I was SURE the linux crowd would just come in and "rm -r *" everybody, that tends to be how these things end :p It's not really something to watch over and over again like the Mac vs PC rap was, but entertaining the first time anyway.
Also, really get's you in the mood for halloween :p

I believe the Mac side would have done much better had they the use of Firewire......

Whoa. Intense, with gore! The moves with the computers made it.
I might go throw up now.

Pretty far-fetched. Those macs and wins were clearly interfacing perfectly at the end. I can't even get screen sharing to work with my mom's computer, and that's leopard-to-leopard.

Can I have those 6 1/2 minutes of my life back? (ok, I just skipped through it quickly, but I still lost about 2 1/2 minutes)

A little long for what is basically one joke--I skipped through it too. But the Jobs-like main Apple guy was great. The bottled water, the eastern moves, everything.
