Oooh, very disappointing, Qazz42. Smile You'll learn to get more skeptical over the years when you've seen many April Fools' worth of pranks, I wager.

Just did, what? Did you post in the wrong thread? I don't understand your response.
He did what I suggested in my post.

Hulu has a 1996 Option, bringing the site style back to a more "retro" feel, similar to what Cemetech did. But on the professional side instead of the n00b side.

Loading videos brings up a dial-up connection:

Who's on the n00b side, Hulu or us? Sad
Us. Just about every n00b site had a dark colour scheme. Some were better then most. Wink

I was more fooled by the print outs of e-mail conversations, the Google Motion wasn't quite as convincing.

I want this sooo bad. My parents used to use Pig Latin around me and my brother when we were little, not thinking we'd pick it up. We ended up getting really good at it, and started using it too quickly for them to understand. They were hoisted by their own petard with that one.
I learned Pig Latin for fun, and I can speak it with some difficulty, but that sounds awesome. Smile You'll have to demonstrate at some point when I see you again or on HCWP!

That one is actually real - if you have an Android phone you really will find a pig latin voice input language selection. Seems to work, too.

JosJuice, didn't you try the OS, wasn't it real?
The OS exists and can be installed on a calc. It seems to be a hacked version of 2.53MP, but I'm not sure.

It was a modified 2.55 MP OS that had loops and a bunch of other stuff to slow it down.
Graphmastur, that was pretty obvious to me. Smile I was horrified how many Omnimaga members accepted it as truth even though it was April Fools' Day and it had some obvious explanations behind how it was made. Wink

Well, I knew when he showed it had the ad that it was fake. Before, the version number seemed weird, but it was TI after-all...
Rule of thumb is to never believe tech news on April 1st, especially when the article was posted at 00:02. Razz
