A man goes into a petshop and asks for the price of a parrot.

"That one can program in C++ - it's $500," says the shop-owner.

The man then asks about the next parrot to be told that this one costs $1,000 because it can do everything the other parrot can do plus it knows how to use the UNIX operating system.

Naturally, the increasingly startled man asks about the third parrot to be told that it costs $2,000. Needless to say this begs the question, "What can it do?"

To which the shop owner replies, "To be honest I have never seen it do a thing, but the other two call him boss!"
