Bill and cars
Bill Gates and the president of General Motors have met for lunch, and Bill is going on and on about computer technology. "If automotive technology had kept pace with computer technology over the past few decades, you would now be driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of 10,000 miles per hour," says Gates. "Or, you could have an economy car that weighs 30 pounds and gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas. In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50. Why haven't you guys kept up?"

Re: Bill and cars
1.What does a microsoft software engineer do if his car breaks down?
He closes the windows and tries to restart it
2.Why did they call it windows?
Since Windows has been introduced the number of suicides commited by jumping out of office buildings has more then doubled...
3.When a plane pilot once was lost in a heavy fog on the pacific coast, but he could rarely see an office buiding's shape,he pulled down a window and shouted to the building with a megaphone "Where am I ?"
When he received the message "900 feet above the ground", he landed safely on Seattle airport.
How did he knew where he was?
Well, the answer was absolutely precise, but also absolutely useless, so it had to be a microsoft software engineer, and the microsoft building in Seattle is close to the airport
