The always reliable hacks at The Register claim that a Microsoft employee made this video and got fired for it. Sadly, that sounds about right. See their story here.

Monkey Boy dancing for Zune

That video is already a little dated, but still almost as funny as the original one. Btw if there ever was just one blue screen of death on the Zune I would freak and sue the crap out of Microsoft (if I owned one that is). Shouldn't be because in reality it's a Toshiba Zune. Microsoft has no clue how to create such a device on their own whatsover, even a crappy one. Bokay once they had a good mouse. Granted. But that's about it. And probably they had that designed externally too.
OMG!
I blew hot coffee out my nose!
Anybody got a cube of cold butter?
The ending.... that was some funny stuff.
Similarly; this old gem: http://macboy.com/cartoons/ballmer/index.html
How did that vacant piece of bloated wetware Ballmer ever get to be CEO of a huge corporation? Boggles the mind. As bad as Bush being Commander in Chief. Your Fake Steveness, how do such clods rise to positions of power? Can Apple write an application to sniff out idiots on the rise and sideline them to be greeters at WalMart?
Reminds me of the iPod remake of that classic "1984" super bowl commercial...sort of.
That's very funny!
LOVE IT!

Much better than the original!
Hard to acknowledge but the guy does actually have some sort of rhythm.
There I've said it.
Dude, that's so friggin old school...
bwar hawr hawr hawr hawr! yup. sounds about right.
gawd, no matter how you re-envision the monkey boy strut, it still really looks like a desperate cry for psychotropic medication.
Good old "Em Ballmer" ® never disappoints. (Toshitba do make good laptops . . . er cheaper than a PB I mean)
Pure, inspired genius.

I work at MS, and I can say Ballmer is a tool.
The likes of ballmer killed grandmother.
I was a little disappointed. Although I thought it was a good video, I wanted to see Monkey Boy "squirting" his Zune.
jajajaja... Dude, this video go to my "Ballmer Video Freaks Collection". Too munch cool the blue screen!
ive seen that before......yeah funny
lol and i think grandmothers spirit is like here but in hiding....from monkeyballmer damned monkeyballmer that is.
mew.
Ha ha. Love the BSOD at the end. It's a nice touch.
Now that I've peed in my pants, can I sue Ballmer for the cost of a load of laundry? Coincidentally, that's about what a Zune is worth these days.
One final question: who is the real anti-Jobs, Gates or Ballmer?
Genius stuff! The Blue Screen Of Death killed me.
Hey where are Fake Steve Ballmer's comments in this blog when you need 'em?! Just once I would like to year his opinion. Then he can go away again.
You're losing your touch, Fake. I hope you don't mind if I refer to you by your first name.
After watching the video, I notice that a row of icons for other videos appears across the bottom. And, surprise, if you mouse over them, they magnify just like the OS X dock.
You're not suing YouTube for infringement? Not even a rant about stealing your great ideas?
And Apple is all about quality. How can a guy like you, Fake, promote these über-grainy videos from P-U-Tube?
At least buy the original from the creator, who probably needs the money now that he's unemployed, and sell in on the iTunes Store.
He really looks like a big ape. Poor him, especially because he doesn't seem to be doing any well at leading mircosoft... He's got nothing going for him.
Maybe that is why he fired the guy...
With a not-working sound card, there is nothing so funny... :D
Who ate all the pies? Ballmer ate ALL the pies.
What is that? The guy's got a peg leg or something?
Perpetuating the lie!
Want the truth?

Partway through the dance he hurts himself. It's the part where his screams rise an octave and he starts limping on his right leg.
That's why the ending is less jumpy and spastic.
I guess you don't need business skills for being CEO if you own a sizable amount of stock :)

Microsoft is dying a terrible death. I wont go down with the shit. (oh sorry that was s'post to be ship but they send out "Shit It" Awards to everyone well connected who works on shipping products.) They still don't know how to sell or ship products over the Web. They just don't get the Web.
Awesome
hahahaha... the monkey boy is a clown and is a sad figure on industry... everytime he laugh at a product the product is a success... everytime he say a product will succeed it fail...hyahahaha..
well obviously you're going to get fired for that..I mean you're putting down the company. I mean if you worked for Apple or any company for that matter, and your privy to important private information and then you go out and say make a video mocking the company..they're going to fire you right there, because they have no clue whether you'll leak out private info. You're more likely to do so if you're annoyed and making those types of videos.
TECHNOLOGY
SILICON VALLEY or the WELSH VALLEY
I have just seen the piece on CO2 Emissions on the internet.
Take a look at the link below;

I look forward to any comments you may have.
Got fired?
He is lucky that psycho didn't chew his face off and leave his rotting corpse in a dumpster.
Mama
oh men, it cracked me up laughing. :)
I'm going to miss Ballmer. Can I start now?
According to the folks at ZDNet ... er, um, the BBC, MSFT now has a less than 90% market share.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6933859.stm
6% Linux + 6% MAC = <90% Brand X
Don't slam all MSFT products, though. Okay? The original split keyboard was really nice. Too bad they don't sell it anymore.
nice article.well written. if u would consider viewing my site too at :

ROFL! Microsoft is such copy cats.
The Z-phone is brilliant. It's like bill gates and Matthew lesko all in one.
Pretty good stuff. Gotta love a good Microsoft spoof!
Nice!
