    saw it in alt.sysadmin.recovery today:

    When Bill Gates died, he went up to Heaven, where Saint Peter showed him
    to his house; a beautiful 20 room house, with grounds and a tennis court.
    Bill Gates was pleased, and looked forward to enjoying the amenities of
    Heaven.

    One day, he was enjoying one of Heaven's many fine parks, when he ran
    into a man dressed in a fine tailored suit.

    "That is a nice suit, my friend," said Gates. "Where did you get it?"

    "Actually," the man replied, "I was given a hundred of these when I got
    here. I've been treated really well. I got a mansion on a hill
    overlooking a beautiful hill, with a huge five-hundred acre estate,
    a golf course, and three Rolls Royces."

    "Were you a Pope, or a doctor healing the sick?" asked Gates.

    "No," said his new friend, "Actually, I was the captain of the French
    Concorde."

    Hearing this made Gates so angry that he immediately stalked off to find
    St. Peter. Cornering Peter, he told him about the man he had just met,
    saying, "How could you give me a paltry new house, while you're showering
    new cars, a mansion, and fine suits on the captain of the French Concorde? I invented the Windows operating system! Why does he deserve
    better??!!!!"

    "Yes, but we use Windows," replied Peter, "and the Concorde only crashed
    once."

    only crashed once so far......

    they're so old now they'll prolly start dropping like flies. I saw somewhere that the average age of the planes owned by low cost air-lines was 35 or something. It dosn't matter how much maintance you do, something that old is going to break down.
