====== Ten Things That Would Be Different if Microsoft Started Building Cars ====== - New seats would force everyone to have the same size butt. - The U.S. government would be _getting_ subsidies from an automaker, instead of giving them. - We'd all have to switch to Microsoft gas. - People would get excited about the "new" features in Microsoft cars, forgetting completely that they had been available in other cars for years. - The oil, engine, gas, and alternator warning lights would be replaced with single "General Car Fault" warning light. - Sun Motorsystems would make a car that was powered by the sun, twice as reliable, and five times as fast-but it would only run on 5 percent of the roads. - You could only have one person in the car at a time, unless you bought a Car 95 or a Car NT. But then you'd have to buy more seats. - Occassionally your car would just die for no reason, and you'd have to restart it. For some strange reason, you'd just accept this. - Every time they repainted the lines on the road, you'd have to buy a new car. - A particular model year of car wouldn't be available until after that year instead of before it.
