It comes down to somebody not knowing what she is buying, just plunk down
some cash, luv the colour!

 

She should take finance, and then work for a bank in hedge funds, fits right
in.

 

Reminds me of a lady I worked with that called me, after she bought a new
car and could not get it out of the dealer.

It was PERFECT, a Mazda RX7, in red, the car she wanted, but the shifter did
not have a drive, just numbers and it had 3 foot paddles.

Her question was how do I put it in drive? So I asked, did you buy a
standard or automatic.

 

ANSWER WAS!!! I don't know, I bought a red RX7!

 

I drove down and it was a standard, when I told her that, she said, but all
daddies' cars had a D on the shifter!!

This is where I'd really like to see an intelligent discussion between
mac/linux/windows fans (all 3) without the usual
extremism/fanboyism/trolling....It would be interesting to hear legitimate
arguments for each side.

But let's keep the conversation going because it's a healthy one and
one that's worth having. I wonder how the Mac people feel?
