This video link for this video on LoadingReadyRun is a Quicktime format file hosted on LRR. This was LRR's primary form of video hosting from 2003 to 2006, before the emergence of Revver, Blip or LRR's primary use of Youtube. Most modern browsers no longer support playing Quicktime videos. The video can be downloaded from the main page or viewed off of the main LRR site here.

Secret, never before seen tests for Apple's "Get a Mac" ads, before they got John Hodgman and that guy from Dodgeball.
