I’m convinced that in one of the sub-basements of the Microsoft Campus, there is a room that houses a demon, red skin, horns, bat wings, rippling muscles…the whole Diablo bit… shackled to a desk with shackles and chains forged from Cold Iron, with sigils that glow white with the energy that binds…and upon the desk in front of him is a Dell Inspiron e1505 Notebook computer.
The only application on this Dell Notebook is a C++ Integrated Development Environment program…and the Demon sits motionless for weeks at a time…then cackles maniacally for a moment in a voice that sounds very much like the plates of the San Andreas Fault shifting an inch or three…then the Demon types furiously for three or sometimes four minutes at a time…
…and yet another feature finds it’s way into PowerPoint.
Working on a presentation, are we?
No… *MY* presentation for the IT Department All Hands Meeting was black text on a white background. It was all the other presentations I had to sit through with flying pictures of coworkers, and sliding bullet points…etc.
