          Whilst in Hell, say hello to Billy G, Stevie B and the rest of the Microsoft elite for me. I expect Bill's punishment is to sit at a desk writing code for an accounts package on an apple IIe, in COBOL, with a wonky power supply and only a tape back-up. Ballmer's hell will be to come up with original ideas!

                                      Only if Bill has found a new job currently as "Bill Gates, deliverer of cancer and death". In that case - yes.

                                      That seems to be a PEBKAC problem, Sir. Why don't you go and fetch a coffee while I handle the operation?

                                        Joking, right? Apple stores belong in the darkest recesses of Hell.

                                        They only sell consumer IT products FFS, not land mines or cluster bombs. Your anti-Apple extremism is as pathetic as the fanboi-ism you profess to hate.
