Microsoft's Embarrassing Launch Party Video Takes a Turn for the Hilarious
Posted 09/24/09 at 06:33:40 AM by Andy Salisbury

There’s no doubt that you’ve seen the top-notch Windows 7 launch party videos by now (and if you haven’t, do your self a favor and get on that!), and sure – while they may be pretty painful to watch as is, there is a light at the end of that tunnel of misery.
Enter Cabel Sasser, the founder of software company Panic Inc, who remixed the “Hosting Your Party” video in a way that made it far more entertaining (and believable). But, don’t let me hold you up any longer – check out his version here. And, as long as we’re on the subject, are there any other remixes out there that we missed? Let us know in the comments.

Wow! A gay guy, a lesbian, a mom, and a black guy. I am so unoffended.
Oh Well

I don't care how "sad" it is...I got accepted to host a Win 7 launch party. My guests will have fun, but not as much fun as me as I laugh my a$$ off all the way home from the mail box in a week or so with my FREE copy of Windows 7 Ultimate Signature Edition (don't ask me what that means, but supposedly it's also a full retail copy as well).
SAD

Trying to generate a human feel for a corporation who long ago abandoned any connection to the users. MS "DO AS YOURE TOLD" now the're starting to feel the backlash. All their money can only insulate them for so long. Their attitude caught up with them.
I gotta go update my Virus protections.
I admit it...I watched the video....and the remix

....sounds like a cry for help to me. Yet again maybe I'll host a Windows XP Party and show all my friends just how snappy and easy Windows XP is, BEFORE they waste thier money on Windows 7 :)
Webster's is going to have to add a new word to the English language....
balmerized: Had the wool pulled over your eyes by a huge uncaring corporation....yet again.
Take an OS, and edit out all the efficiency, and what you have left is a post-XP Microsoft operating system :)
Man I swear, you act like

Man I swear, you act like you were molested by Windows 7 or something.

To my immense embarrassment, I have to admit to watching about half of the pictured video. I kept hoping something funny would happen. It didn't, it just remained sad.
