Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I finally got a new laptop with a lone USB 3.0 port. I'm now looking at getting a USB 3.0 hub with a power adapter so I can use both of my USB 3.0 hard drives at faster speeds. I've read lots of horror stories where some hubs either don't come with power adapters -- and as a consequence the portable drives don't work with them properly -- or they are designed poorly which results in USB 2.0 speeds. Or, the hard drives keep getting disconnected. Do your readers have any suggestions or experience using USB 3.0 hubs? Thanks!"
The "gum" and other bad things (the broken car, swimming pool without heater, empty ketchup bottle, repeating the same stale meal twice) represent Windows XP- people getting by with the same old, day in and day out. The grandmother represents an old Windows user, clueless and bitterly disconnected, since she's been "around for 12 years". The scallop potatoes and "fancy" mustard represents XP's attempts to keep modern and with the times. The leather giraffe, here a carry over from the previous "leather" of the first commercial, represents Windows XP itself ("had it in the family 6 years"), and Gate's being planted with it represents the criticism that Microsoft encountered when it tried to take XP away from new machines in an attempt to push Vista. In reality though, the commercial claims that the real reason why people were upset was because Microsoft was infringing on people's space (Seinfeld clipping his nails in the girls room) and so this is why Jerry and Bill leave. And there's something big coming from Microsoft.
