Well I'm home and so happy!!!

...and when I was out in Texas I got to hang with Kevin Swan and one day at the tradeshow me, Kevin and Nathan Holritz went around giving mini tutorials on some of Mac's coolest features. We even showed Apple how cool their computers are!

Don't miss this video and other great videos coming from Kevin's New School Photo.com

This is freaking great!

That's really funny!

Best thing is that no one got hurt in this prank!

That is SO funny, thanks for sharing. I think that anyone else would have gotten in real trouble though.

Made me laugh out loud! Had to pass it on to some friends with Apple remotes.
Erin Browne
That's some funny stuff right there. Anyone ever catch on to you guys?
Lynn Squier
Very funny!

Ever since Adam realized that Flash studios at the mall use the same Pocket Wizards that we do, he has wanted to take one with him and make the lights flash as he walks past. Years ago, he realized we had the exact same tv remote as a friend. He brought his remote with him and kept changing the channel. No one could figure out why the tv was so messed up.
Adam Squier
Heh heh. It was at a Super Bowl party. The TV kept going to a different channel. This was in Minnesota where they take their sports seriously (though not a wacko as they are here in Columbus). I couldn't keep it up for too long because people were threatening to leave the party and go home to watch the game. thumbsup.gif

But I still want to take a PocketWizard to the mall. ph34r.gif ph34r.gif ph34r.gif

The Apple remote idea is fantastic. I love it. Maybe I'll steal the idea for the PPO show in March.

I just spit coffee on my Cinema Display... thanks David! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

I could never figure out why Apple did put some kind of channel system on the remotes... when I had two iMacs in my office at one point it used to drive me insane trying to use the remote on one and not the other.

All told, awesome work!!
Chris Humphreys

What goes around comes around. Next time you order a new Mac and you open the box to find a bunch of rocks in it...you'll know they have your number!! smashpc.gif

I saw the short version when it was first posted. And nearly peed myself laughing then. This time was even better!! I sent it to my entire tech department (all 4 of us) and our minds are racing as we are currently in the process of replacing the last two labs with Intel Macs. And my office has a window looking into one of the labs.....muwhahaaaaaaa!!!
Neil Cowley
Did you ever go further with the presenters and play some music or movies?
BillyBuff
Evil! LOL!

On second thought....I'd do it too! laughing.gif

Neil,

Yeah, but only in a few cases. I actually did it to DJ while he was presenting at Pictage. I played one of his home movies from his recent vacation.
Barefoot-Memories
I'm sending you my laundry bill, DJ, cuz I just peed my pants watching that!!!!!

Eric's reaction was the funniest, cuz he knew someone was messing with him.
MAN that was good!!

Kevin - you should have played DJ getting his makeup done at Nordy's smile.gif ... next time

You guys are SO in for it! Watch your backs! OK, I'm going back to watch again.

I liked Kubota's reaction but that other big dude in the black shirt looked like he was going to lay the smack down!
You will be the first OSP'ers to make Apple write fixes for you, niiiiice!
Jillian Kay
that is hillarious. we were scheming ways to use it at the mac store at the mall & work & heck any coffee shop in san francisco. smile.gif

how funny that apple didn't anticipate this complication.....
typhotos
not sure what was funnier, watching the prank or watching Kubota doing the "mixing pot" move with his hands.

Yeah... I moved things around a bit so the music was particularly spicey at that moment for him. That's one of my personal favorite moments... smile.gif

this is too funny!

Shane Snider had his pocket wizards on the OSP cruise and it sucked because they were using a slight different system @ all the photo booths ha ha ha!
crystal
