Comments on: Lenovo's lame product video

The YouTube video created to generate buzz for its dual-screen W700ds workstation is embarrassingly silly.

Seriously, I thought it was funny... but maybe that's because I am a guy... Then again, it looks like this commercial is aimed towards guys, and women who are open to finding funny things... funny.

I'm a guy too, and I think it is a pretty dumb ad. Totally absurd and not funny in any way. A dork fantasy.

But the dork fantasy is what's supposed to make it funny.

Me, I mildly chuckled at the ending. But that's because I'm a bit juvenile.

That was the dumbest thing I have seen for a while. I mean, it did get me thinking "would that work". Well, it wouldn't make me any worse off than I am now...

we're all watching it aren't we? I think Erica fell right into the trap. I am an Apple freak but now I am aware of a pretty slick product courtesy of a cheesy, mildly amusing lowbrow video.

I thought it was a funny ad. I also think it is ridiculous that only Erica knows what makes a smart, hip internet video. It?s obvious that this ad wasn?t created to sell computers to women like Erica. The question is whether or not the ad connects with its target audience. I believe it does.

This made me laugh, but I thought it was dumb and it didn't interest me any more in the product. I asked Erica to write this story.

pitifully ridiculous

[NickieO]

Puerile dorm-room mindset. And I'm a guy who fits right into the target audience.

You posting this means it already worked, and was a great ad. It's not selling anything, but promoting a brand, and generating talk. Done and Done

I thought the ad was very funny and it did get it's point across about the screen extension in a humorous and unforgettable way. Yeah, lighten up people...life doesn't have to be so serious all the time.

This workstation is awesome, can't wait to get one.

[innovation10]

Critics can't touch the fact that this is a nice workstation. It's size makes work more comfortable and it's great for presentations. The ad was great, a step out of the box from the usual PC maker ads...yawn. Two thumbs up, looking forward to using this machine.

This video was funny and so I'll remember it, which is more than I can say for this Feminazi article writer.
