Show is very funny....as always...
I love the IE8 to get better of than the other browsers....since it somewhat left behind...with previous versions..
IE8 is comparatively faster than IE7 but some crashes trouble me...
I know the next beta is gonna be more stable and awesome...

Hahaha! That was really funny!

I especially liked it (about 22 mins into the film) when guys were giving a tour of the bus, and the background song was "Girls Just Want to Have Fun".

great show!
