I didn't get it until I was told :P.
So what... are computer programmers supposed to be people that always follow directions perfectly? Orrr what... lol.
Sorry, I may just not be with it tonight...

Here's one I found lately :)

Is Windows a Virus?



No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses (viri?) do:

1. They replicate quickly -- okay, Windows does that.

2. Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system
as they do so -- okay, Windows does that.

3. Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk -- okay,
Windows does that, too.

4. Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable
programs and systems. Sigh... Windows does that, too.

5. Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too
slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware. Yup, that's with
Windows, too.

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental
differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are
running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and
efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they
mature.

So, Windows is *not* a virus.

I don't know. I thought it was pretty funny. :rolleyes:

Windows 95: [noun],

32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a
16 bit patch to an
8 bit operating system originally coded for a
4 bit microprocessor, written by a
2 bit company that can't stand
1 bit of competition.

Know a little Pascal, Pseudo-code and a few odds and ends, but by and large programming is a big turn off (i dont get on with geeky types and programmers are the geekiest of them all)

They aren't much better than Flash animators are they?
