A followup NRK posting with English subtitles had the following info: "Helpdesk support back in the day of the middle age with English subtitles. Original taken from the show "Øystein og jeg" on Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) in 2001. With Øystein Backe (helper)and Rune Gokstad (desperate monk). Written by Knut Nærum" It is at http://youtube.com/watch?v=pQHX-SjgQvQ&mode=related&search= and has the original ending about an equally unusable user manual that adds to the hilarity.

Too bad that the first person to post this, wherever they did, was so UNprofessional that they did not include credits or reference for the source/artists in this piece. That's what the content and license properties are for. If anyone knows the source, and the story of the various languages, I'd sure like to see a comment -- then, if not pirated, I can use it in beginner user training.

We had great time watching it in our office. It is very similar to what we hear from users, and this comparison to a roll... "To turn pages takes longer than using a roll!"... :-) Thank you for sharing such a funny video. We had great time watching it in our office.
