came across this on rec.humor.funny:

> Paraphrased from a discussion overheard on German Usenet in

> 
> A: "You can do wonderful things in software if you get rid of the
>     assumption that Windows == Shit."
> 
> B: "But likewise you could do wonderful things in hardware if you
>     got rid of the assumption that Gravity == 9.81 metres per second
>     squared."
> 
> C: "But that's an invalid comparison.  You can get rid of the gravity
>     problem quite easily by a change of location -- but do you
>     think Windows would get any better if you shot it to the moon?"
