Repost of January Blog! So good it was worth repeating. It's laughs galore on every page when you see the whole manual!
Shades of "All your base are belong to us!"
Check out the scan of page 1 from the manual that came included with a KByte 128 MP3 player I bought on clearance at Staples last week (January). Click the link below the image to load a PDF version of the entire manual (4.4 meg).

Standout phrases like, "...operation guide of the product is disaccord with the manual" and "Know well with player" and "Basal function" are funny enough, but every page is full of hilarious translations!
And then there's the screen shot of the format player's memory:

You might miss the misspelled title bar ("MP3 Plyer"), but no one can miss the one that had me ROFLMAO - "All the data of the disk will lose!"
No matter how the device works (and its not bad), the laughter alone was worth the price - $34 - of admission!
