- Along the lines of the "Windows-in-a-trashcan" idea (good suggestion, whomever
- did it...I seem to have forgotten), here's what I came up with:

- <Big bold font> "If you could buy a Porche at the same price as a
- Volkswagen, which would you buy?"
-
- <Pictured: a balance, a la the goddess Athena, with "Porche" on one side
- and "Volkswagen" on the other and a bright question mark in front of it>

- <Page 2>
- "...then why would you buy Microsoft Windows?"
-
- <Pictured: a top view of a steel garbage can like the one used outdoors,
- with a Microsoft Windows 3.1 box sitting alone at the bottom>
