Q: What do you call 50 Microsoft products in a trashcan?

would accept this too.

If Microsoft built cars, 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.

If Microsoft built cars, the Linux community would make a car that was powered
by the sun, was reliable, five times as fast, twice as easy to drive, and
available freely - but only 5 percent of the people would use it.

If Microsoft built cars, the Linux car owners would get expensive
Microsoft upgrades to their cars, which would make their cars run much
slower.
