Linux Ms Fortunes

If Microsoft built cars, your car would frequently die on the freeway for
no reason, and you would just accept this, restart and drive on.

Occasionally also, executing a maneuver would cause your car to stop and
fail and you would have to re-install the engine. For some strange reason, you
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.

If Microsoft built cars, the oil, gas, and alternator warning lights would
be replaced by a single "general car fault" warning light.

If Microsoft built cars, seats would force everyone to have the same size
butt.

If Microsoft built cars, the airbag system would say "are you sure?"
before going off.

If Microsoft built cars, If you were involved in a crash, you would have
no idea what happened.

If Microsoft built cars, you would have to press the "Start" button to turn
them off.

Microsoft's biggest and most dangerous  contribution to the software
industry may be the degree to which it has lowered user expectations.
