Saw this in a magazine.. I think we can relate to this.. Sorry its off
topic though...
The following describes what driving to the store would be like if
operating systems ran your car:
MSDOS- You get in the car and you try to remember where you put the keys
Windows- YOu get in the car and drive to the store very slowly, because
attached to the back of the car is a freight train.
Mac System 7- You get in the car to go to the store and the car drives
you to church
UNIX- You get in the car and type "grep store". After reaching speeds of
200 miles per hour en route, you arrive at the barber shop.
Windows NT- You get in the car and write a letter that says "go to the
sstore" then you get out of the car and mail the letter to your dashboard
OS/2- After fueling up with 6000 gallons of gas you get in the car and
drive to the store with a motorcycle escort and a marching bandd in
procession. Halfway there, the car blows up killing everybody in town.
AS/400- An attendant locks you into the car and then drivves you to the
store where you get to watch everyone else buy filet mignon
