Windows 8, Vista 0



Yay, Windows 8 everyone. Now it does the work for you and you can all go home early. Doesn't it seem a lifetime ago when Vista came out? You know, when you had to click on things and load them and use Word, ahhh, the old days.

Anyway, that reminded me of a long lost snippet of Mr Vista history that never came out. And here it is. Something and nothing really - but then hey, that's binary for you!

Mini Me



You know that minimise button? Now THAT could be very helpful. Perhaps on your waistline if you have been sitting in front of progress bars recently!

Filmed from thoughts that leaked from the mind of Michelle Goode.

We all know that impatience is the curse of the IT user. I mean, come on, we aren't getting any younger are we? And yet there we are, wasting the best years of our lives watching a spiny thing or a little egg timer if we are mac addicts. And that egg-timer just flips around when it is empty anyway.

Okay, so maybe we weren't actually planning on doing anything with these 'best years', as we generally fear the outside and other humans. But that isn't the point!

So what is the point? Oh yes, today's lesson. Don't click away on the mouse like a twitching chimp, just give in, surrender, and wait for the egg timer.

Today's episode is from the prolific pen of Michelle Goode.

The REAL Mr Vista


Yes, it is Mr Vista 2011. Unfortunately for this young lad he is not in fact celebrating his love of geeky web comedy. I mean, his crown isn't even blue! Instead he is the winner of this.

Mr Vista is Fragged Off



What happens when you reach half way through series 3 of a so-called 'comedy' web series? Well it seems that Mr Vista has become clogged up with stupid ideas and is hampered by repetitive, almost formulaic thoughts. Luckily, the colleague is on hand to perform a defrag!

Mr Vista gets a Virus



Mr Vista is stricken with a spot of the winter flu. But, hey, that's no problem for the geek-meister. He has just had his anti-virus application installed. Just as well his brain doesn't contain too many files!

Mr Vista has one final attempt at getting his Windows 7 inspired advert made. We have heard that he has been working on some 'exciting' ideas - he just needs to print them out. Yes, we can all see where this is going! But go with it. At least it is short. And the last one of these advert thingies.

PLUS - don't forget that there are some shameless and commercially suspect Mr Vista gifts for that geek in your life. If you don't have a geek in your life then you probably are one yourself. In which case you don't have any friends. So, hey, buy a comedy mug for yourself. It may fill that aching emotional void. Cheers then.

Pop to the shop

Mr Vista was so pleased to discover that you internet people enjoyed his half-assed spoof of the Windows 7 advert - that he has decided to do a take 2. This cyber stardom may all be going to his head, or at least his hat!

Mr Vista's 7 second guide



Mr Vista is back for one more desperate clutch at online fame, now that being a youtube star is generally yesterday's news and everyone is watching Anne Widdicombe instead.

The blue-hatted legend starts will some little teaser episodes to ease you back in. He got quite upset at the "Windows 7 second guide" adverts on TV and so tried to make his own instead.

Mr Vista is a millionaire



Just a quick note to say that Mr Vista has now exceeded 1 million views on Dailymotion alone. YouTube going well also.

We were on www.youtube.com/itsmrvista but they kicked off whoever was on www.youtube.com/mrvista so we could have that too!

One of my faves...

Thanks


Mr Vista crosses the 1 million view mark on Dailymotion. Awesome-tastic.
