"This is a completely genuine book cover, which I found in Bangalore, India. I thought it was hysterical, until I opened it and saw what they write inside. Maybe I should scan a few more pages later, because the stuff they write there is just unreal.
I decided to invest $2 in buying it and I haven't regretted it since."

  1. Did Casio buy Access? That's a Virus.

    Someone should inform Access' lawyers.

  2. Clearly a recent attempt to make a funny collage for the small-ish number of people out there who'd be amused by all the anachronisms. Maybe those Japanese kids who played for Johnny Depp on that Youtube video should be added?

  3. Hey,

    This is a completely genuine book cover, which I found in Bangalore, India. I thought it was hysterical, until I opened it and saw what they write inside. Maybe I should scan a few more pages later, because the stuff they write there is just unreal.
    I decided to invest $2 in buying it and I haven't regretted it since.

  4. This is typical stuff for the Middle East and Asia. The amount of intellectual property theft is staggering, although I "theft" is relative since their legal and social mores are different.

  7. Understood. I've seen this, too.

    Probably, Casio has nothing to do with the book either.

  8. Er, I should have said I was replying to zero's comment.

  9. They actually use Casio as a synonim for synthisizer in this book. And they also attribute to Casio the first revolutionary products in the industry. What do you know.

    I'll post a few scans from the inside soon, complete with images and text.
