I just saw some old XP commercials...the guy taps his glass and says, "Waiter? Waiter? More Water!" And then the kids pop out and squirt him. Anyway, I was trying to think of the stupidest thing to have them do. Suppose he wanted more eggs. He'd say, "Waiter! More scrambled eggs!" And they pop out and have some... scrambled egg... shooter... type... deal... I thought it was mildly amusing. I was cracking up in the middle of Church when I thought of that. You can imagine how embarassing that must have been.

BTW, this was my 900th post, yet another PIII level post. .9 GHz, w00t!

Where do you have these commercials? On tape? I've been looking for old SS commercials on old tapes but I've had no luck, I have sufficient equipment to copy them over to the computer. Do you think you could possibly do that? I'd like to see this commercial.

I remember that old XP 270 commercial from 2001. The scene was a street-side dinner. There was also a XP 310 commercial from 2001 that was in the desert and it involved a guy saying, "...water...need water..." or something to that effect. Then some kids with 310s pop out and shoot him, advetrising that it has 30% more water. 30% over the 110 of the same category or 30% over the 270 of the same year as an upgrade?

Umm, is it me, or is this really not funny enough to have a thread? (although it is pretty funny)
Edit: Forget it, it's really funny. I cracked up for like 5 minutes.

Eggs it'll be. Imagine begging for water in the middle of a desert and having cooked eggs of all sorts shot and/or thrown at you.

I've seen funnier (although I don't remember when). 
Mmm... Scrambled eggs...
