Windows fucks up New Year’s Eve fireworks. In Seattle. Perfect.

January 01st, 2008 | Category: Tech News


See here. The dudes running the big fireworks show in Seattle had set up a computer to run the display and keep it timed with the music. But somehow the poor dumb piece of shit PC got messed up or crashed or needed to be rebooted or something and the whole show got ruined. Yup. In Seattle. Our spies say Ballmer was at

the show and humans around him started laughing and pointing at him and doing the monkey dance and chanting, “Vista sucks! Vista sucks!” Afterward Ballmer went back to the Borg campus and trashed an entire set of office furniture, although Frank Shaw of Waggener Edstrom says that that absolutely did not happen. Go Steve!
