I AM NOT A PC. Are You?

Posted by: Simon    Tags:      Posted date:  October 8, 2008  |  3 Comments

According to this latest Microsoft commercial, everyone is a PC. Hmmmm… interesting angle.

But I am standing firm. I am NOT a PC. Here’s why:

  1. When I upgrade something in my life (like a car), I really upgrade it, not just stick bling on what I had before.
  2. I won’t be told to upgrade until I am ready, if I ever become ready.
  3. How do PC’s reproduce? However it’s done, I am not interested. I like my way better.
  4. I don’t want to be turned off as easily as I am turned on…
  5. … and in fact I don’t want to take as long as a PC does to be turned on!

If you could be turned off as easily as turned on it might make you a woman, rather than a pc. lol.

Funny post. But then, I am partial to geek humor.

@Christine – it’s hard to know how to reply to that, so I’m taking the fifth.
