Help me make a viral video

Haven’t written anything for a while because I’ve been behind the scenes preparing for the next wave of Acer products.
I’m finishing the text for the mini-sites that will then have to be rapidly translated into a million languages so the pressure’s on. Never a dull moment…
We’re thinking of doing our own videos this time although in true AcerGuy style, I wish I could get you guys out there to make your own.
Tell you what, if you send me a video of you saying what you’d like Acer to make, if you’re right I’ll edit them into one long string of requests that we could use as a viral video.
You could do it with your OrbiCam, or sign up to Seesmic, or YouTube or wherever you like.
The sentence you have to finish is this:
You’re going to have to be quick as it’s just around the corner but it’d be amazing to see the results.
Any offers..? ideas..?

Hi, im not sure if I an typing this message on the right page. I was looking for your advice I know in your own words you are not a technical genius, but your a damn site better than me!!Hi i have just bought the aspire 5920g, its an amazing machine!
how ever the keys on the left for launching the bluetooth, email, and internet keys do not work??
Or they seem to be inactive, there is a launch manager icon in the bottom left which i can configure by browsing for a file or enter an internet address…
very confused and cant seem to find a way to rectify this can you help me?

try uninstalling and reinstalled the launch manager, it act as a driver I believe, if other driver for mouse or keyboard such as logitech, it might overlap the driver accidently, as it happened to me before, since i got a VX Nano from logitech, even overlapped the driver.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Little off topic but as you’re the first… noted!

Hi Mike,
I really like this idea of making a pot-pourri of “I wish Acer would make…” videos. That could give Acer a better idea of what the typical Acer buyer (let’s say the Acer Guy) like or dislike about the products.
I’m sure Acer already has lot of quantitative surveys about customer satisfactions and those videos could be a good chance to have an approach also to a qualitative research.
I hope you’ll receive some interesting videos, not only about the products themselves, but also about Acer services such as presell, troubleshooting, technical support, repair, etc
