At a
Computer Expo, Bill Gates
reportedly 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

6. The Macintosh car owners would get expensive Microsoft upgrades to their
cars, which would make their cars run much slower.

"general car default" warning light.
8. New seats would force everyone to have the same sized butt.
9. The airbag system would say, "Are you sure?" before going off.
