   But that’s a baseball bat…? And it’s a computer, not SimCity…

      Somehow I think Plunkett was making reference to the “SIMSHITTY” background on the laptop’s screen before they start beating the hell out of the laptop – and considering it’s obviously a rap dissing the modern over-use of DRM and “always-online” rubbish, the laptop is simply being used as a physical object to represent the software being loaded onto it… a video of 3 guys trying to beat the hell out of some lines of code with a baseball bat just really wouldn’t have the same impact…

         I decided once I was pointing out the lack of sledgehammer, I’d point out that it wasn’t SimCity :p

   No idea where he got the sledgehammer from but the laptop does say ‘simshitty’ at beginning of the video

      Clearly not one that Plunkett has seen.
