Are you sure the upscaler is a joke?

Cause it wouldn't surprise me if it were a real item.

Fairly sure, unless part of the charm of the product is how badly shopped it looks.

The Youtube thing is actually amazing.

I'm sad to say I don't think the BBC did one today. I think they might have got into trouble a few years ago for "Scratch 'n' Sniff internet" which was truly awesome and sadly taken down well before noon. I suspect people complained that they'd gouged their expensive monitors.
