At a recent computer COMDEX, Bill Gates compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated: "If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving twenty five dollar cars that got 1000 miles to the gallon." In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press release stating supposedly by Mr. Welch by himself "Yes, but would you want your car to crash twice a day?"
Then others added these:
5.Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause your car to stop and fail and you would have to re-install the engine. For some strange reason, you would accept this too.
6.The airbag system would say are you sure? before going off.
8.The Macintosh car owners would get expensive Microsoft uprgrades to their cars, which would make their cars run much slower.
9.New seats would force everyone to have the same size butt.
11.You'd press the "start" button to shut off the engine.
Every time GM would introduce a new model car because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car.
GM would require all car buyers to also purchase a deluxe set of Rand McNally road maps (now a GM subsidiary), even though they neither needed nor wanted them. Attempting to delete this option would immediately cause the car's performance to diminish by 50% or more. Moreover, GM would become the target of investigation by the Justice Department.
Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle, turned the key, and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
