Top 10 Ways That Life Would Be Different If Microsoft Built Cars

10.     New seats would require everyone to have the same size butt.

 9.     We'd all have to switch to Microsoft Gas (tm).

        The U.S. Government would be GETTING subsidies from an
        automaker.

 7.     The oil, alternator, gas, and engine warning light would be
        replaced by a single "General Car Fault" warning light.

 6.     Sun Motorsystems would make a car that was solar-powered,
        twice as reliable, five times as fast, but would only run on 5% of
        the roads.

 5.     You would constantly be pressured to upgrade your car.
        (WAIT- it's that way NOW!)

 4.     You could only have one person in your car at a time, unless
        you bought Car '95 or Car NT; but then, you'd have to buy more
        seats.

 3.     Occasionally, your car would just die for no reason, and you
        would have to restart it. For some strange reason, you would just
        accept this as normal.

 2.     Every time the lines on the road were repainted, you'd have
        to buy  a new car.

 1.     People would get excited about the new features in Microsoft
        cars, forgetting completely that they had been available in other
        brands for years. (Hmmmm...)
