Inside CNET Labs 44: Get yourself a boombox and pull up your pants
Fab 5 Freddy attempts to follow Dong's advice.
We start off with probably the weirdest opening ever. Where was I going with that? Your guess is as good as mine.
That opening sets the tone, though, since we jump right into Dong's promised dating advice from last week that's completely full of fail. Seriously, don't try this at home, or on the street.
There are bad segues and then there are bad segues. This one here is probably the worst ever, and we deliver it to you, unedited, raw, real. Real dumb.
From fail dating advice, to fail segues, to something that is potentially full of win: 2,000 movies on one DVD. From there we have lengthy discussion on installing Windows 98 on your home system, why we love the smell of plasma rifles in the morning, and why Dong can't stop obsessing about turning something fun into a job.
Also, Dong whips out his ruler to give Acronis a light spanking.
All of this, delivered to you in a clear, concise and professional manner. Indeed.

Eric Franklin refused to write a bio, saying, "Why are you bothering me about this bio business again? If I wanted people to know more about me, I'd send them to the Inside CNET Labs Podcast" (shameless plug). E-mail Eric.
Eric Franklin's colleagues once had the following to say to him: "Eric, you've been doing this performance testing thing for over 10 years now. How about you try something different?" To which Eric responded, "How about you shut the #%$@! up?" This candid attitude
allows him to go toe-to-toe with the most extreme of personalities, including that of Dong Ngo. This bio was written by Eric Franklin.
Dong Ngo is a knowledgeable, opinionated individual who wants to convince the world that he's just a normal person; but he hasn't had much success. According to him, this is because the world itself is abnormal. Dong loves traveling and is well-versed in several languages. He, unfortunately, is not so well-versed in English. Still, it's best to ask him questions. From networking and how to optimize your system, to turning a strange place into home or what the meaning of life is…most of the time, he has the answers. The question is: Will he make himself understood? Subscribe and find out!
