When my girlfriend asked me for a comparison between the Mac and
Windows, I said that the Mac is like getting in a car and driving, and
if you run out of gas you put more gas in. With Windows, when you run
out of gas the wheels fall off and you have to remember the order you
put them on last time before they will turn.  And then you find out
that you had the wrong engine all along, but for some reason it ran
before, but not now that the wheels have been put back...
