Top Ten Ways Things Would Be Different if Microsoft Built
Cars.....
1. A particular model year wouldn't be available until after that
year, instead of before.
2. Every time they repainted the lines on the road, you'd have to
buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would just die for no reason, you'd have
to restart it, and, for some strange reason, you would just accept
this.
4. You could only have one person at a time in your car, unless
you bought a Car95 or a CarNT, but then you'd have to buy more
seats.
5. You would be constantly pressured to upgrade your car. Wait a
sec, it's that way NOW!!!
6. Sun Motorsystems would make a car that was solar powered,
twice as reliable, five times as fast, but only ran on 5% of the
roads.
7. The oil, alternator, gas, and temperature warning lights would
be replaced with a single "General Car Fault" warning light.
8. People would get excited about the "new" features in Microsoft
cars, forgetting completely that they had been available in other
brands for years.
9. We'd all have to switch to Microsoft Gas (tm).
10. Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler would all be complaining
because Microsoft was putting a radio (probably an A.M. radio at
that) in all of its models.
