From www.improveverywhere.com, three agents entered a Starbucks one by one with their own giant desktop computer and CRT monitor rig. They bought coffee and worked at their computers as if they were laptops. One computer even had a Wi-Fi card installed, enabling our agent to surf the web. This is one ofover 70 different missions Improv Everywhere has executed over the past six years in New York City. Others include the No Pants Subway Ride, the Best Buy uniform prank, and the famous U2 Rooftop Hoax, to name a few. Visit the website to see tons of photos and video of all of our work, including behind the scenes information on how this video was made. http Shot and edited by Matt Adams: www.mattadamsapple.com Song by Tyler Walker: myspace.com If you are interested in getting involved in New York you can sign the NY Agents List on the site.

Yeah, my Optiquest 15″ CRT is probably 45 pounds. 60 pounds is reasonable for 17″ or 19″ monitors.

Drknowz February 10, 2010 at 9:56 am

yea, same here, ppl who live long enough to have used windows 95 probable all feel the same way :)

Can you believe windows 95 was 15 years ago…I feel old.

sk1zz0t February 10, 2010 at 11:13 am

What’s so fail about that estimation?

An old CRT as big as the ones in this vid are definitely close to 60 pounds.

pl0xingrunepure February 10, 2010 at 11:14 am

NICE! windows 95 is that a new version of windows 7 or something xD

neal421 February 10, 2010 at 11:33 am
