Lost in translation

I was reading a Dutch web site, as translated by a web page translator, and saw this at the bottom of the page:

Wow. Now that's entertainment!

Now you may be thinking this was a Dutch porn site, but it wasn't! It was a web site for some company that thinks they have a super new encryption system for data stored on hard drives. I think the line above is supposed to be something like "click here to be emailed news of future developments" or something like that.

Machine transation has a ways to go, I think.
