Happy new year from Bill Gates - Emperor of MicroLimp

Hot News!

Emperor Gates has sent us a memo notifying us that the way we use computers will dramatically change over the next few years:

There will be much less use of keyboards and mice, and people (and monkeys, presumably) will spend more time hitting their computers and swearing at them as they are ordered to pay for the operating system, the applications that you bought last year and so on. As well as the 5in1 card reader, newer models will feature a slot in which to insert your credit card every time you switch on.



BBC report

The absence of any mention of Linux confirms that he is concerned :)

MicroLimp Customer Support

MicroLimp Customer Support

Greetings. We are the brass monkeys, abandoned here by the Ruskies space mission, many moons (sic) ago; now employed by MicroLimp Customer Support.

Why on the moon?

There are several schools of thought:
Less radio interference, hence better customer service.
MicroLimp's dedication to helping otherwise poor underdeveloped nations.
There's no unions, no police and no laws here: we are paid peanuts (and bananas).
