Seagate vid unveils strange testing methods, Andre the Giant sound-alike

by Paul Miller, posted Dec 20th 2006 at 5:30PM

Ever since we got perpendicular last year with Hitachi, we've been waiting for 'em to be showed up by a competitor, and we believe we've finally found a match in Seagate. What Seagate Singapore lacks in slick production values it makes up for with a ridiculous premise and a strangely uncanny Andre the Giant sound-alike voicing "grandpa," the Seagate Pocket Drive tasked with explaining the hardships in his past to all the little Pocket Drive chilluns. Hilarity ensues, peep the video after the break.

Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead!
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it!
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?

I hate to say it, but a perfect example of how badly the two words "artistic" and "geek" fit together. Congrats on creating an unintended comedy masterpiece.
