This pic is not too flattering.


FIRST SLOT WOW.

I got it on tape for all those in Tampa. I can bring a small TV to the next meet if you wanna see it.

That spot was over too quick!

Mark, you did a great job. Great plugs for MCO!! I hope BMW NA sees it and notices the MINIUSA.COM in multiple places on your car.

I thought the piece was sympathetic to MCO. Lets hope it makes a difference for the better.

I'm disappointed that there are so few posts to this topic.

Are we the only one who watched the piece? :???:

As one of the six supporters with MINIs that were interviewed on site in Boulder I am very pleased that TechTV even got as many of us on air as they did. Mark's comments were the best of course and the editing went okay all around I hope it helps the cause.

DS/Blk MCS + pulley (Randy's #100) and very worn-out runflats at 8k.

Can someone make that segment available to watch over the net? I wanted to watch the spot, but I don't have cable. I also apologize for not posting earlier. I'm completely with Mark, he's doing a great job, and from the sound of it, did a great job on the 2 minute spot.

If no one has the spot in a downloadable format, I'll be happy to convert it to one if you send me a tape of it.

Richard

I'm re-rendering it right now so I can post it on my website... It should be up soon, (i'll let you know..)... it would be way cool if the MCO members in it would let me know who they are, or who's MINIs are whos so i can overlay some titles so we know...

NOTE: The page itself is up, but the video is not... I'll let you know when it's up...

The video clip is up!

The link to the file is a little messed, if you click on the '.' you'll get a bad link, so make sure you click on the right spot (the .avi file)...

Also, it's in DiVX 4 format, so you might have to download DiVX 4 to view it... sorry bout that, but it was either that, or a postage stamp sized slide show...

and i'm too tired to fix the link, or updage the page about the DiVX 4 codec info, but i'm too tired... i'm off to sleep...

zzzz

Thanks for posting that rocketboy! I wasn't able to get video for it but I could hear it and that was good enough.

Yep, to see it, you must make sure you have DivX installed, you can get it at this website...

Thanks for the hardwork Rocketboy. I'm checking it out now. Ok, I downloaded the Divx codec. Any tips on why there might be no sound? I see the video alright. I hear system sounds ok as well. Do I need to reboot after installing the codec? Well my crappy ME OS crashes so much, I'll probably have rebooted twice before you answer this.

Thanks

Richard
