I thought this was going to have something to do with the new Nintendo console and online connectivity....

Haha, that's great.  It's kind of neat to see what people thought of it back then.  Now it just seems as much a part of my life as books or TV.  Actually, it plays a much more important role than either of those for me.

Hmm, found this kind of odd... Skip in to 3:48 and look at the top left monitor and you'll see it has the Windows XP default background. What the hell?

Haha, it kind of does look like XP.  However, I think it's just the way the light was reflecting against the screen.
