Apple computers announced today that they will distribute software that will allow you to install Windows on new Macintosh computers.As a long-time Macintosh and MacOS fan, I'm blown away by this announcement. It just seems so superfluous. I mean, the whole point of buying a Mac is so that you don't have to use that gawd-awful Windoze OS.
Installing Windoze on a Mac is like putting rancid mayonnaise on a perfectly cooked fillet mignon, or spending $80 on a bottle of Brunello, then mixing it with 7-Up. Would you buy a Ferrari then paint a Confederate flag on the roof, install a horn that plays Dixie and call it the General Lee?
I'm trying to think of other things that might be comparable. Being invited to Osama Bin Ladden's nephew's bar mitzva, maybe?
It just doesn't seem right, somehow.
Surely these are the end times.

All my Macs instantly crashed upon hearing the announcement. There is no rebooting them: They are pissed off at the insult.
