Is this British telivision? I've never seen this guy, and I notice a rather different type of humor, somewhat funny though.

I laughed.

It's TV's Craig Ferguson, and I believe he's Irish. As the closing screen points out, he's on CBS (which is American TV).

Funny

That is funny. making fun of the zune...CLASSIC!!!!! GO IPOD!!!!

Robin

Hoots Mon! He's Scottish ya sassenachs!

He's on after David Letterman. (He was Drew Carey's Boss on the Drew Carey Show too).

"crackalackin" should be the new all purpose buzz word for the Zune.

Who's going to be the first to go make the Crackalackin myspace or spaces page? Ha-Ha!

Hey! that tune you sent me is crackalackin!"

"Yeah! They put on a Crackalackin live show!"

Cesar Menendez

LOL, Rhett.

I have to say i'm not a mac fan, i think the Zune is great! I believe this is the mardy behavoiur of another Apple fan who 'really' feels threatened because Microsoft may well have something better.  

JC

So the iPod fans are mad the Zune may be better?  Ummm...no.

iPod fans are not threatened.   The whole reason they became iPod fans is because iPods were better.  Not cheaper.  Not more compatible with Windows.  Easy to use, sounds great, even looks great -- better.

If M$ makes a better player people will buy it.  Even iPod fans.  People buy products they think are...better.
