Is this for real?
If so, wow. Just wow.

The best laugh I have had all day, excellent Dell. This is one sweet puppy.
Shame about the mp3 player being a dog turd tho’
I thought “Dude you’re gettin’ a Dell was bad” Why does Dell like to make everyone that uses a Dell look like a tool? – Bravo to the marketing team…..you losers.
You never know, they may sell a bunch of these. I like the idea of a screen on the device, unlike the Shuffle.
No, that’s a 100% real. I work for Dell Retail and we have to play a DVD of this guy at the Rockstar Mansion 24/7 🙁
Good grief, no one over age 8 would find that clever or cool. They completely misread the teen market. Again.
I hate to say it but it’s kinda funny. It reminds me of an SNL sketch with sheri oteri as Judge Judy and Steve Buscemi as a kind of crazy dance instructor.

I guess they really don’t get it? What a bunch of morons.
Is this Dell thing a joke?
If you can’t compete with apple, make something that’s 180 degrees
different. I still can’t believe they actually did something this lame.
Is it April 1st already?
i think i’m gonna be sick….
DOES ANYONE CARE ABOUT WHAT DELL IS DOING?
This is supposed to be MacDailyNews, “where Mac news comes first.” Dell isn’t a Mac. In fact, the iPod isn’t a Mac. I’m bored with this crap.
Well, it is kind of funny. Lots of money went into the site… but I don’t think it’ll sell any dittys. No kid is going to want that thing thanks to this (no adult either come to think of it)
Holy crap! Easily the most annoying thing I’ve ever seen.
ditty ditty BANG BANG…..I should check my digital tire quage to see if it plays crappy wma’s (thnks RePlay)
I applaud the marketing team at Dell, keep it up losers, I bet they did the layout and design of that abortion on winblows!
Whack!
I wonder if anyone has the rights to DullDitty.com?
Hey Dell, Nickelodeon called, they want their misapplied, garish, psuedo-retro designs back.
The DellDitty. For people who absolutely positively DON’T want to be cool. Or even smell cool.
Wanna look like a dork? Buy a DellDitty Today!
Wow! The cool-factor of it! Might cool the sales down, even!
Mommy, please make it stop!
You’ve got to be joking, right? Is Dell taking a “Napoleon Dynamite” approach to selling the Ditty? Meaning that if it can’t cater to the cool crowd, it will try the opposite approach?
How retarded!!!
This is sad. Cole & Weber is actually a good advertising agency, but I don’t know how they can defend this work. Watching it, people will feel like they can’t take Dell seriously, and that affects how seriously they will take the Ditty. Big, fat zero.
“….Holy crap! Easily the most annoying thing I’ve ever seen…..”
Ya know…. maybe that is the point !!
Years ago…. probably the most annoying commercial around was… Mr Whipple and ..”Please dont squeeze the Charmin”…
Yeah… it was annoying… but it sold a lot of toilet paper !!
Think about it guys (writing this as I listen to Shirley Horn on my 4GB Nano)..the competition is *still* thinking on ways to match the iPod (any model) let alone surpass it. Meanwhile Apple has probably partially shelved the huge binder labelled iPod-The Beginning and working on the next use for their runaway hit. This from a company which was supposedly beleaguered and dying? Apple may and does have it’s faults but it’s dedication to deiivering graceful and imaginitive products remains pristine.
This is funny. I guess their going after the fat, poser tech guy who want’s to be cool but really never was or will be. talk about trend setting and hitting the ever popular tastemaker markets. ROFLOL.
