Think you'll get on an airplane again?

    Take a look at this
    "It appears to be a standard Microsoft Windows 98/NT desktop, including Outlook and Internet Explorer."

    Now this not photoshoped at all. I know the website well and what you see is what you get.
    A pilot during a flight - that the f*ck do you need Internet Explorer for? Maybe they're not getting as many woman as you think ;-)
    More importantly - Win98?! Erm... :(

    I guess it's a large picture, but it may save your life! :-)

    and it's blocking one of the instruments.
    and a couple of the files on the desktop don't have associations !



    If Operating Systems Ran the Airlines

    Everyone brings one piece of the plane along when they come to the airport. They all go out on the runway and put the plane together piece by piece, arguing non-stop about what kind of plane they are supposed to be building.

    Air DOS

    Everybody pushes the airplane until it glides, then they jump on and let the plane coast until it hits the ground again. Then they push again, jump on again, and so on...

    Mac Airlines

    All the stewards, captains, baggage handlers, and ticket agents look and act exactly the same. Every time you ask questions about details, you are gently but firmly told that you don't need to know, don't want to know, and everything will be done for you without your ever having to know, so just shut up.

    Windows Air

    The terminal is pretty and colourful, with friendly stewards, easy baggage check and boarding, and a smooth take-off. After about 10 minutes in the air, the plane explodes with no warning whatsoever.

    Windows NT Air

    Just like Windows Air, but costs more, uses much bigger planes, and takes out all the other aircraft within a 40-mile radius when it explodes.

    Linux Air

    Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start their own airline. They build the planes, ticket counters, and pave the runways themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of printing the ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket yourself. When you board the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of the seat-HOWTO.html. Once settled, the fully adjustable seat is very comfortable, the plan leaves and arrives on time without a single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful.
    You try to tell customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they can say is, "You had to do what with the seat?"
