For those times when you are struggling with your computer or the
quirks of some Microsoft application, think of this:
At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared
the computer industry with the auto industry and stated, "If GM
had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we
would all be driving twenty-five dollar cars that got 1000 mi/gal."
Recently General Motors addressed this comment by releasing the
statement, "Yes, but would you want your car to crash twice a
day?"
IF MICROSOFT BUILT CARS.....
1. Every time they repainted the lines on the road you would have
to buy a new car.
2. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason, and
you would just accept this, restart and drive on.
3. Occasionally, executing a maneuver would cause your car to stop
and fail and you would have to reinstall the engine. For some
strange reason, you would accept this too.
4. You could only have one person in the car at a time, unless you
bought "Car95" or "CarNT". But, then you would have to buy more
seats.
5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was
reliable, five times as fast, twice as easy to drive but would only
run on 5 percent of the roads.
6. The Macintosh car owners would get expensive Microsoft upgrades
to their cars, which would make their cars run much slower.
7. The oil, gas and alternator warning lights would be replaced by
a single "general car default" warning light.
8. New seats would force everyone to have the same size butt.
9. The airbag system would say "are you sure?" before going off.
10. If you were involved in a crash, you would have no idea what
happened.
