Another oldie

"If you play the Win98 CD backwards, it summons Satan. It's worse when you play it forwards - it installs Windows"

Ah, good times... :-)

I have a "quotes.txt" from slashdot days with some MS jabs in it:

> Last week, I left my 2 XP CDs on my dashboard in plain view. Someone broke into my car and left 2 more.

> The day Microsoft makes a product that doesn't suck is the day they make a vacuum cleaner.

> A Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer is to computing what a McDonalds Certified Food Specialist is to fine cuisine

Juvenile some might say, but they still makes me giggle.

      IIRC with Windows 98 you could just use any product key you had on as many machines as you wanted since there was no activation or real phoning home capabilities. So most likely your whole friend group would be using the same serial that was copied off your uncle's old gateway.
