Or time machines which they could then advertise that you'll have gotten them already when they are ready.

In the future you are dead, but you had a beautiful funeral.
You've got to know you're bad at video narration when a cross over to a Steve Ballmer segment sounds interesting and refreshing.
Don't quit your day job.
I like this web site but really this video was a waste of time. Essentially it was a video that told us to read the stories that have already been posted. The longest annoying bit was seeing Steve Balmer talking.
You guys could have demonstrated some products and given your opinions of them. All we got were moving pictures of the still images that were in the other articles.
Some of those ultrabooks really seem attractive tech devices. When they all have the Ivy Bridge chips and Thunderbolt ports I'll really give them a close look.
My 8 year old does better editing on iMovie (the iPad version).

I thought the narration was the worst part, followed by the content and then the editing.
Of course, I am spliting hairs here as it all sucked.

Agreed. A close up of an Air beside each ultrabook at CES in turn would have made a very interesting video and it wouldn't need much of any commentary at all.

Don't quit your therapy sessions, and keep your mean-spirited comments to yourself, kid.

Well as AI's resident douchebag,I'm sure your comments matter on some level, "Firelfly7475". Perhaps you can link to your own content that you provide for free for comparison.
Or just keep being a dick until AI deletes your troll account.
