Title: That "Video Professor" Idiot on TV.
Post by: cocoamix on 14 June 2003, 10:57
From someone on the MacAddict Forums who heard a radio show with him as a guest:
 
quote:
Female TV Personality: "I find it hard to believe that there are people out there in this day and age who don't know how to use a computer at all. Is it really true?"
Video Professor (ass): "Yeah, they're called Mac users. Ha ha."
Male TV Personality: "Ha ha, yeah, all three of 'em."


What a fucking tool.
No wonder he has to go on TV practically begging people to try his shit for free. He's obviously catering to the lowest common denominator.

lets gather in typical american fasion and sue this asshole.  He just called us stupid.  However, it is funny how he says Mac users are stupid, when the only retard videos he makes are for windows users.

It's quite ironic that most Mac users actually know more than the average user for the simple reason that they are using a non-mainstream platform. Heck, they can do more with their computers than some Windows users who lose precious time struggling to learn how it works.

I think he's just angry that the Mac is so easy to use that he doesn't need to sell his shitty "LEARNING HOW TO TURN ON YOUR FUCKING COMPUTER, IDIOT" videos.

Seriously, don't let it get under your skin when some moron says something bad about the OS in public. After all, this guy makes his money off of selling instructional videos which closely mirror the F1 key on Orifice applications.

If nothing else, it proves Windows users are stupid sheep who would feel better about buying something than consulting the help built into their programs.

Oh, and here's the forum post, using my amazing Searching skillz:

in the end of one of their infomercials they showed some dumass how to put clipart into a word file. It took her 30 minutes with the program to figure it out
