 I can't believe they actually posted this on their retail page; never seen a company do that before.

So yeah, they've got a cuter sense of humour than most.

I liked the mockups showing the glowing tubes inside the rear control cavity plate! |

There's also this.
In both cases, they need an external power supply.

But seriously, to put it on their retail page... I don't know, I was gonna say it would be bad for business, but it's just weird for a company to do.

|  | Gettin' crazy with the Cheez Whiz! | | Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Visalia CA | | | There's a long-standing 'net tradition of spoofing on April 1 - this year, I saw...
- Google changed their name to 'Topeka' for the day (the mayor of Topeka Kansas 'changed' the name of the town to 'Google' temporarily to attract Google's attention, hoping to be part of Google's fiber-optic network project thingy)
- Warner Bros. announced that they had purchased The Pirate Bay.com to stop file-sharing of W/B's titles
...and these are just the beginning. Do a Google (Topeka?) for April Fools Web jokes and you'll get pages of them.
