DOS with QEMM Airline:
The same thing - with more leg room to push.MAC Airline: All the stewards,
stewardesses, captains, baggage handlers, and ticket agents look the same,
act the same, and talk the same. Every time you ask questions about
details, you are told you don't need to know, don't want to know, and that
everything will be done for you without you having to know,so just shut up.
OS/2 Airline:
To board the plane, you have your ticket stamped ten different times by
standing in ten different lines. Then you fill out a form showing where
you want to sit and whether the plane should look and feel like an ocean
liner, a passenger train, or a bus. If you succeed in getting on board
the plane and the plane succeeds in getting off the ground, you have a
wonderful trip... except for the times when the rudder and flaps get
frozen in position, in which case you have time to say your prayers and
get in crash position.
Windows Airline:
The airport terminal is nice and colorful, with friendly stewards and
stewardesses, easy access to the plane, and a completely uneventful
takeoff...then, once in the air, the plane blows up without any warning
whatsoever.
Win NT Airline:
Everyone marches out on the runway, says the password in unison, and forms
the outline of an airplane. Then they all sit down and make a whooshing
sound like they're flying.
Unix Airline:
Everyone brings one piece of the plane with them when they come to the
airport. They all go out on the runway and put the plane together piece
by piece, arguing constantly about what kind of plane they're building.
Mach Airline:
There is no airplane. The passengers gather and shout for an airplane,
then wait and wait and wait and wait. A bunch of people come, each
carrying one piece of the plane with them. These people all go out on the
runway and put the plane together piece by piece, arguing constantly about
what kind of plane they're building. The plane finally takes off,
leaving the passengers on the ground waiting and waiting and waiting and
waiting. After the plane lands, the pilot telephones the passengers at
the departing airport to inform them they have arrived.
Newton Airline:
After buying your tickets 18 months in advance, you finally get to board
the plane. Upon boarding the plane, you are asked for your name. After
4-6 times, the crew member recognizes your name and you are then allowed
to take your seat. As you are getting ready to take your eat, the steward
announces that you will have to repeat the boarding process because they
are out of room and need to recount to make sure they can take more
passengers.
