  • I wanna be you when i'm old...(lol) you are great

  • @yotas312 Holy crap -- then there would be TWO of me! (Peter Griffin Scream) "Ehhhhhhhhh!"

  • holy shit you're an awesome piano player.

  • Nice Joba MExican

  • I went through 5 mac book pro the graphic card and other things kept screwing up.

    They finaly gave my money back.

  • Typical... Apple's solution to everything is "reset the PRAM, verify permissions, run disk repair". They ALWAYS give me that crap. I swear apple techs are mentally retarded. Took my iMac in to Apple due to a PSU issue... TOLD the apple tech it was the PSU. Do you think he listened though? So I was without a work computer for over a week while he screwed around changing the logic board and crap. Turned out that it WAS the PSU. He should have listened to me instead of screwing around...

  • @MrYoshiDan Dan, YES I go absolutely bonkers when they give me the stock line of "reset the PRAM, verify permissions, run disk repair." Looking back, between the two MacPros, two iMacs, and four MacBook Pro's I've purchased for myself, family members, and/or for my company - I've had 100% failure. Each and every one of these very expensive systems had a problem. As I openly state -- I'm not impressed. I use both the Windows Server and OS X platforms, and Apple's products all have had failure.

  • @adiblasi Every time I call an apple support tech and they tel me to reset the SMU or PRAM I die inside a little... lol

    I honestly think I had more problems with my iMac after I got it back; when I realised the idiot tech hadn't put the logic board in properly and the ports weren't lined up with the holes, preventing me from plugging in anything into most ports. This was after he had already had it for a week... I almost cried... Not to mention he scratched up the stand.. Apple"care" my arse...

  • @adiblasi Just LIE to the first level of tech support, provided you actually know what you are doing of course. I always do, and I get better service.

  • @adiblasi I Totally agree TOTALY! I have taken this computer in for many things but the say every time: "reset the PRAM, verify permissions, run disk repair." I have told them what was wrong and it still took them two fucking days to figure out it was what i said it was.

  • @adiblasi And now they think reseting the SMC Is the cure to all probrems i have a RAM and CPU Issue and they never listen they made me reset the SMC 54 times!

  • I love you really bad jokes Alfred :)

  • REAL Free energy technology exists!But some very powerfull ppl don't want you and me to be free from energy costs,Get a motor that needs no gas or electric input at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Join the energy revolution!

  • you should have written a song entitled "my mac is dead an im really f***ing pissed" or... "steve jobs stole one of my cores (that asshole remix ft. apple tech lady)"

  • Ahhhh, come on Al, XP still pwns Vista. Vista fails. You know what's funny, I writing this on a Vista laptop.. because I can't afford to upgrade to Windows 7, or get a Mac, which is what I wanna do.

  • did you try taking the cmos battery out

    I think Apple didn't really optimize there processors for mac os x

  • Holy fucking computer! That's like...NASA, with a piano keyboard. Damn. I never thought that a video about computer tech could be entertaining; I'll give it 5 stars, just because anyone who can make you laugh when you have no clue (well, little clue) what they are talking about should get...uh...5 stars? Funny, I only clicked on this video because I thought maybe it was about a guy getting so pissed at his computer that he tosses it in the drink. Maybe you should consider it?

  • its not a piano keyboard the piano is right on top of the keyboard

  • @justforever96 Do you mean "Holy fucking computer, batman."

  • @Wired2X That's it...you got it, pal. I'm sitting here at my dinky little cheap-ass Toshiba laptop, and this guy's got the equivalent of a Cray in his house. I'll bet HE doesn't ever have to wait 5 minutes for YouTube videos to finish loading. Hell, I'll bet he has long conversations about philosophy and existantialism with that thing. ;)

  • Loved the Piano Playing, where'd you get the music for we are apple?

  • well I am surprised that you were able to fit that green balls joke in there when you were so pissed.

  • I have one and not had a problem. And When I called apple I never waited longer than 30 seconds and I actually talked to someone who SPEAKS ENGLISH.

  • apple sos lol good one al.

    1-800-apple-sos. "WHERE?!"

  • its prob was a cache prob

  • You are a damn good piano player!

  • hahaha you're really funny Al

  • I guess apple ordered a bunch of intel processers that were incompatible with

    mac os x???

  • Oh 7:09 I"M REALLY FUCKING PISSED

  • I don't think that they would do that...

  • That's the life of a pioneer,what the fuck does beta mean,it means they can say it works to avoid all law suites,and sell you something new even thow the piece of what ever doesn't work anyways.

  • Good god I've never seen you so mad. Nice piano playing though Alfred

  • Also, around 9:25 it sounds like the AVGN theme

  • Computers suck.

  • tru dat

  • nice piano playing

  • lol you are funny

  • lick my green balls lol

  • "Groovy!" LOL. I don't know I just laughed when you said that!

  • I'm telling you...Apple has problems too.

  • nice fucking set-up

  • PCs suck and MACS are way more efficient besides he has PCs and MACs

  • Either or, i always said...Even when my PC is succeeded by a Mac (Possibly), i'll still work on fixing my boot issues, and eventually i'll upgrade it to a gaming rig. Or maybe i'll casemod it and give it the form factor of a compaq portable III?

  • *i killed my PC by my own hands. Last time i screw with hard disk partitions...

  • Trust me, we have way more problems with PCs, no machine is perfect.

  • GREAT Piano player

  • That music was really good!!!

  • wow he is a good paiano player

  • HA HA HA! I have blue balls!

  • umm don't say that ... just a hint ... i'll tell you what that means when you are older

  • lmao. Sorry.

  • i think everybodys youtube account should start with alfred on there subscribed list his videos are so funny

  • lmao ur funny dude and sry about ur comp lol green balls lmao

  • Mac's great OS, sexy cases... and a 23% hardware failure rate!

  • Made in China

  • LMFAO... green ballz! wahoo!

  • Get Spock from StarTech to help you

  • funny thing now thecreativeones having problems with his mac pro

  • steve jobs stole one of my cores haha

  • lol! Great video!

  • wow alfred you are pissed in this video but I can understand why 4 sure, I would be pissed if I spent as much money as you so I see where your coming from guy, I seen your newer video and I see you got it fixed, lets just hope you dont have anymore problems with it, It just goes to show you all hardware has failures INCLUDING THE WONDERFUL APPLE

  • Dells suck, and i know that from experience

  • This video is killing me. I had to change my underwear after watching this one.

  • "5500 dollers that machine should lick my green balls"hahaha

  • can't you close the process which take 100% of processor?

  • no because that process is the OS X kernel which is the heart of OS X

  • yeah kernel task is the root, and its just a core, not processor

  • If you would close it it would shut down or worse, CRASH!!!

  • You know....THIS is why I don't buy Macs. Not that I don't think they're not good, not that I think they have such hardware problems very often, no... you're forced to take that bloody thing back and you have to wait for I don't know how long, not to mention all the time wasted on the phone. With a PC you have choices. Don't like that maufacturer or seller? Pick another one. Good stores allow you to RMA a processor or motherboard that you bought without too much fuzz. Apple=less freedom

  • i have to agree with you on that but if it is just a memory or hard drive problem, in most cases you can change it yourself

  • True, but I just don't like the thought of having not 100% control. I don't like the idea (maybe it will ever happen when I would own a Mac) that I have to wait on the phone, waiting for a repair, that I have to bring in my Mac, that I have to be concerned about my private data on my drives when it is in repair, hidden costs, etc.

    And imagine that I have to go back again...sigh. No, great machines these Macs, but I prefer PC/Windows even if it means dealing with a few annoying Windows issues.

  • Not even phone support? That's ridiculous.

  • I've been watching your videos today. I've said whateva and knock it awf and diagpissnostics to my friends no less than 40. LOL

  • man alfred your freakin hilarious when your angry LMAO XD

  • I loved the piano part. Do you compose music for a living?

  • apple are not always good at customer services i have had problems with them in the past i think its luck of the draw with mac geniuses some are good some are shit...glad u got it worked out but it shouldnt have taken that long considering u spent a ffin fortune on that machine, i love apple but sometimes even they suck at customer services....love the piano al

    do u do ur opening music on ur intro??

    :O)

  • wow you are a great piano player. I loved the Bit where you were playing the piano

  • oh man how dont you laugh!

  • Hey Al you should do a tech video, also did you get Leopard.

  • Nice piano playing at the end.

  • lol this is funny

  • ... Intel Cube ...

  • "My green balls" XD

  • nice piano playing!

  • Hey, AL.

    How difficult was it for you to keep straight face after you said "green balls" ?

  • Apple should re-do something like the G4 cube for those who need the Mac Pro, but can only afford the iMac, like those in education! Maybe the Intel Cube?

  • that would rock

  • Its called the mac mini

  • Comedy!!!!

  • I know your computer is ok now but I find it very odd that XP had no problems with the processors but the mac os did.

  • Another great one Al, keep up the great work on your videos and piano playing!!

  • haha nice vid bud

  • Oh man your videos are just absolutely great! :D

    I love to watch `em over and over again. :D

    Man, just keep posting these great videos! :D

  • may be you should use a different install disk when you do your clean install on your system.

  • $7000!!!! Holy CRAP! my parents paid $2100 for our dell Dimension E520 desktop.

  • but that has windows on it. so i cant use it lol. i love mac, even though there pretty expensive

  • yeah i like mac too ^_^

  • keep up the good work Al, Oli

  • This was one of THE funiest videos you have made Al, keep it up! Danny

  • try to use a diffrent program to show processor usage

  • That machine should lick my green balls! *lifts green balls*

  • Yep, quite funny.

  • Microsoft will help you and never ask you about a warranty. Its fun to call them and tell them your having a bogus unrealistic problem and they will help you! lol

  • Disregard statement 7. I now see your 4 core whore video.

  • 1.) Damn, nice monitor.

    2.) "Apple-SOS, whateva". That was not horrible. That was priceless.

    3.) Steve Jobs stole one of my cores! bum!

    4.) $5,500 + 2K for monitor? what do you do for a living?

    5.) D as in douche bag. lol

    6.) Put vista on that four core whore. It'll run better than David Hasselhoff

    7.) Did you ever get it fixed? If so, what was the problem?

  • LMAO

  • OMGGGGG FUNNY SHIT AL!

  • what do you do? SO RICH!!!!

  • "Slammed as my exgirlfriend's.....car."

  • great video

  • I literally ROFL'ed when I saw the XP loading screen. XD

    Excellent Video, really Funny. :)

  • what song is that?

  • Just because he could buy a PC computer that has the same specs for a lot cheaper doesn't mean he is getting a better computer. Apple computers last a long time. They are built well. That old Apple Lisa he has still works. It boots faster then windows will ever. Just because it is cheaper doesn't make it better. Remember you get what you pay for!

    **cough** Windoz **cough**

  • must be the sony HC3 right?

  • how come you are sooooo rich?!?!?!!?!!??!

  • Not a bad video, even if a bit...rude. I'd say bad luck: Apple always been correct with me.

  • alfred u are ONE FUNNY GUY!!!

    sry that i find ur problem funny...but i cant help it

    im going to buy a Macbook pretty soon..hopefully it doest have any of the same problems u experianced :)

  • Thanks for watching, and the nice compliment. Hey, I work hard at turning these situations into good comedy. The machine is all fixed, and it's working great!

  • Alfred did not download a copyright version of OSX.... Any Mac you buy (Except for iPods) comes with re-install/restore dvd's

  • I cant believe you dont use linux

  • Really sorry to hear about the problem with the Mac Pro. I want to buy the 8-core but with the benchmarks proving that there is a memory bus hang-up, my dreams of a 2 to 8 processor upgrade are shattered. :-(

  • Hi - thanks for your comment. Can you please provide the info with regard to the benchmarks? That would be great. Thanks! - Alfred

  • hahaha, very entertaining :) love that shit, thats why i have a pc :D

  • Hey Lynk, thanks for wawtching. Just for the record, I use both systems, Macs running OSX and PC's running XP Pro and Windows Server. All good stuff. Finally got that MacPro fixed -- they swapped pretty much everything! All good now - the 4 Xeon cores laugh at video compression - it really cranks!

  • Oh, and I'll be playing it on the XBox because I sure as heck can't afford Vista at the moment (unfortunately, because I think it sounds like an incredible operating system once you get past all of the confirmation boxes I've heard about).

  • *cough* pirate copy *cough*

  • Do you really think Mr. Diblasi would install a pirated copy of OS X when his MacPro costs over 5,000 $ ?

    LOL

  • As an artist himself, I doubt Alfred downloads pirated copyrighted material.

  • Hey Al! I havent been on live in a while. Whats goin on? I see your mac is still bein a bitch. You should get the new 8 core macpro. then youll have 7 cores!

  • Dillon! Hahah, you bum! Actually, it's all fixed now. I'm on Long Island for Easter. I'll be back in FL real soon. Talk to you later!

  • I have a really good experience with Apple throughout my lifetime (17 years) perhaps its just the luck of the draw . But i thought this video was fucking awesome and so funny. Perhaps when or if you upgrade to Leopard your problem will be fixed, or better yet just get another copy of Tiger. Make Apple pay for it or just steal a copy. laters

  • Hi NW - thanks for watching and the comment. Actually, Apple swapped the mother board and the video card, and processors - it was some type of hardware or firmware problem. Ha, glad you liked the video! Thanks for the comments!

  • Al, it's ICE! Why do you keep wasting your time with that Apple crap!? Stick to Windows buddy! $7,000 for that system!! Come on dude, you could build a Windows machine of that caliber for a lot cheaper!

    Anyway, Halo, this summer! Take it easy!

  • I agree. Quit throwing away money on the Crapple.

    And I'll be playing Halo with you and Icer.

  • I look forward to it -- can I hire you as my private body guard? Are you playing on XBL or Windows?

  • I'm nowhere near as good as ICER. This is SpACatta, by the way - so I was already planning on playing you two in H2. My other account kept getting spam on its Comments, so I closed it.

  • Halo for the PC or Halo for Windows? Good scam by Microsoft, releasing Halo 2 ONLY for Vista. It will make a lot of the hardcore gamers buy Vista - I know I would if I didn't have an Xbox system. How is the game compatability on Vista? TTYL, Ice. Thanks for checking in!

  • apple is better than windows it was just a bad batch probily

  • You're just uninformed, probably.

  • The green balls part was funny!

  • HAHAHA great vid but thats why i dont get a mac if it breaks you can't fix it yourself

  • case of the 'bad apple'

  • LOL F*#$IN PISSED. LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Love how you got mad..thats so funny!

  • LOL! Nice pink shirt!

    I hope that the Mac Pro that I get doesn't have that problem.

  • Mike - CRAP - it's Pink? I'm f_cking color blind. The salesperson told me it was red. DAMN IT!

  • Ehh, its more pinkish-red.

  • lol!

  • You might have got a better "solution" by calling 1-800-apple-sos  .

  • lmao

  • Dude, I know it seems like a pain, but just back up your data, take it in to the Apple store, show them your problem and they'll fix you up A.S.A.P.

    I had a VERY unique video problem with my iMac, I took it in, they looked at it, it was fixed and ready for me to pick up after two days and it cost me nothing.

    After you exhaust your software options, you have to take it in...

    Or you can leave it alone and give it to me! :D

  • I feel your pain, if I spent $5500 on a computer and it decided to brick itself after having bizzare problems I'd be a little pissed off too! Especially if customer support talks to you like you're a moron or something. As for the maxed-out core, it might be a combination of hardware and software; there is most likely firmware built into the motherboard that OS X uses but Windows XP does not.

  • "Especially if customer support talks to you like you're a moron or something."

    Well, they have their procedures. I was told to take my machine to the Apple store too.

    That's what I did and they fixed my machine for me. Hey, if it's under warranty, I'm gonna use it.

  • It looks as if you picked a bad apple there.

    I was very interested in the infomation about the 8core systems. Do you have any info on Logic Pro 8?

    Thanks for another great video Al.

  • have you tryed an other OS X install DVD as the DVD u have could be defective

  • "Apple has always led the way in user friendliness."

    HA! Not since they started selling iPods.

    Hail to the original non-Unix Mac/OS!

  • God ... aplle tec support in the Uk are f'in thick ! I ask about my old apple laserwriter printer, and they say, 'Apple have never made any pinters ... ' WTF !?

  • Slammed! lol! Oh and about that MacBook Pro. Theres something called smackbook i think. Search it up on youtube yea? ttyl! =D

  • That's so unlucky. Bad Luck

  • thats the problem WITH EFI it may boot fast but when 1 OS fuckes uop it can fuck the EFI up BISO can not be fucked by any OS unless u flash the BISO wrong inside windows

  • Did you Check the disk permissions? LOL....

    Try a Striped RAID set w/ all hard drives

  • Give Me The MacPro

  • you know Al if your getting tired of the MacPro.. you can allways give it to me :)

  • Tyler - if you time it right, you and your father might be able to catch it when I toss it off of my 4th floor balcony. I'll let you know if it is going for a ride.

  • that's unlucky mate, keep up the piano playing sounded awesome!

  • By the way the piano playing sounded beautiful!

  • Thanks, David!

  • WOW! You can play piano in the dark lol! Hope you get it sorted my friend!

  • Keep us updated Al, don't give up!

    Much support from Chamonix France

  • Thank you and "Hello" to our friends in Chamonix France!

  • Another greaaat video :D Al all your videos owns =). Warm hugs to you al ;). Love ya :).

  • lol you are good at ranting, APPLE SOS  that's hilarious. Man I'd laugh if Steve Jobbs came across this youtubing!

  • Kiss my green balls, no really, kiss them. AWESOME. I laughed so hard at this rant if you will call it :)

  • Trust me Al...everybody on the planet who owns a piece of hardware hates customer support, cause they say you gotta purchase the warranty, insurance, etc ...and they do this no f'ing stop..heh green balls..love the vid Al!!

    5 stars..

  • i love ur crappy jokes omg lol =D ahh your awsome.

  • Thor - oh man, don't worry -- there is more crap coming... :)

  • Makes me glad that I have a PC :) I heard my song in there too

  • Okay, now I watched it... so that's why it looks so freakin' crisp! You edited it in high def. Very nice! I'm jealous of your image quality. It impressed me very much.

    I'm so sorry about your Mac Pro. I hope it all works out! That is weird, though... how Windows XP sees it and Mac OS X doesn't. It's a strange world we live in! 5 stars and a big favorite from me! You know I love your Apple videos.
