I like both of those but!

Yeah a "I don't Believe It"  The "intel" video lacks consistancy with background acoustics.  Balls get tossed but, do they strike the plates to cause resonance or mearly trigger canned sounds?  The second looks like a CG generated cartoon.

Again, I can make mistakes! are they real?

To be clear - the second one is obviously animated and is the original. It was not intended to be perceived as real.

The first one is indeed fake in that the sound you hear is not what you would actually hear if you were there, although it does actually work. That was also my problem with the Wintergatan video, even though I'll admit it's a somewhat nitpicky complaint.

You can hear a more accurate version of the Intel machine (as well as get some better look at the cRIOs) in this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAQX8W3D6Mg

That's because it is.  That video has been around for a very long time, possibly before Y2k (starting to date myself there).

EDIT: Almost.  It was published in 2001: Pipe Dream

Honestly, this reminds me too much of some of the "music" at House On The Rock. As stated in the clip, some are real, some are very fake.

Yes, many of us saw the intel machine in action, so it is definitely real.

It was however much bigger than the limited view shown in the videos, so there is much more going on than what we can see.

I did a double take at RavensFan's new avatar.

Happy Baseball Season! I'm looking forward to going to my first Texas Rangers game this season.

I think it was when the O's won the AL East the year before last I used that through the post season and went and changed the alias to OriolesFan.

I was pretty happy when the O's went back to that sweet logo a few years ago. 

Go Tigers

I liked when they went back to the "ornithologically correct" bird when they did that.  It was reminisicent of the early years before my time.

Now them going back to the "cartoon" bird I like because it goes back to the years when I started following them.

Now that they've become relevant again, I'm seeing a lot more people wearing Oriole stuff as compared to about 10-15 years ago.

(Some point I need to add the twinkle to the bird's eye.  But the GIFs have been working right on the forums the last week, so it isn't worth the time to figure out how to do it again.)
