It allows them to uphold their copyright, gives them money, and gets them intrested in more FIRST content. :]

I could not get it to work with Firefox. I did get it to work with IE :( . Does anyone know why? Am I missing a plug in?

Well, either my computer is messed up of MSNBC is no longer hosting the video. (I got a "This Video is Not available" on the MSNBC Media player) Is it just me, or did they really just stop hosting it?

Its also available via the NBC nightly news podcast.

While I am glad they did this story, it's a shame they did it 3-4 weeks after nationals, so much for timeliness. :rolleyes:

I've been getting the same message every time I've checked.

It's interesting, I got home and viewed it again (must have been the school blocking it) but then I close the window on accident and open it again and it says I need to get such and such software in order to view it. I'm all like "What are you talking about?!? I was just watching it 5 seconds ago!?!?" :ahh: :yikes:

Tried it in IE and it worked fine though (Darn you Microsoft! Must you monopolize everything?!?) :mad:


I'd like to save a copy of that video (I'm in it as it turns out; in the half second clip where they show the hand moving the controller... it's my hand :D ). If anyone knows where I might be able to download it without installing any Mac software? :rolleyes:

EDIT: Never mind, I managed to get it working again and downloaded it using my trusty "download helper" extension! ^_^
