Microsoft vs. General motors

They say, at the latest computer exhibition COMDEX, Bill Gates said that if General Motors had developed like Microsoft, we would have all been driving cars that cost $ 25 and fuel consumption 0.005 l / 100 km.
A day later, a GM spokesman said in response that if GM followed Microsoft’s trends, then:
1. Absolutely for no reason, the average car would have had an accident 2 times a day.
2. Every time when the markings on the road would change, you would have to buy a new car.
3. Sometimes the car would just stop in the middle of the highway. To go further, it would be necessary to push the car to the curb, close all the windows,
turn off the engine, open all the windows and then go.
4. Performing a difficult maneuver, the machine may stall and no longer start. Then you have to reinstall the engine.
5. McIntosh would make a car that would use the energy of the sun, would be five times faster than a car from Microsoft, twice as easy to manage - but could drive only 5% of the roads.
6. Engine temperature sensors, battery charging, oil pressure would be replaced by one - only: "This Machine has carried out an illegal operation and is now stalling."
7. Before the airbags work, the following message will appear: Are you sure?
8. Sometimes the car will lock the door and you will not be able to enter.
inside. Then you need to simultaneously press the door handle, insert the key and press the radio antenna - the system is unlocked.
9. Every time you buy a new car, you will have to learn to drive again - the management of each new car will be completely different from the old one.
10. To stop the motor, you need to press the "START" button.
They say Gates was offended ...
