Dear WAMUG,
For all of us who feel only the deepest love and affection
for the
way computers have enhanced our lives, read on.
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 $25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon."
In response to Bill's comments , General Motors issued a press
release stating: If GM had developed technology like
Microsoft, we would all
be driving cars with the following characteristics (and I
just love this
part, esp 7th point):
1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
