minis, a web site and a joke

In response to Bill's comments, GM issued a press release stating: "If
General Motors had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving
cars with the following characteristics: 1.For
no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
2.Every
time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to buy a new car.
3.Occasionally
your car would die on the freeway for no reason. 4.You
would have to pull over to the side of the road, close all of the windows, shut
off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could continue. For
some reason, you would simply accept this.
5.Occasionally,
executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause your car to shut down and
refuse to restart, in which case you would have to reinstall the engine.
6.Macintosh
would make a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable, five times as fast
and twice as easy to drive -- but would run on only five percent of the roads.

7.The oil, water temperature, and alternator
warning lights would all be replaced by a single "General Protection Fault"
warning light.
8.The airbag system would ask "Are you sure?" before
deploying.
9.Occasionally, for no reason
whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously
lifted the door handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.

10.Every time GM introduced a new car,
car buyers would have to learn to drive all over again because none of the controls
would operate in the same manner as the old car.
11.You'd
have to press the "Start" button to turn the engine off.

Difference between a Mini and any other car?

When you pull into the service station you fill a mini up with oil and
check the petrol.

Sounds more like a ford to me.
