That's overestimating the average microwave food consumer. Which set of directions would you pick?
Stovetop Instructions:
1. Open package and pour contents into 6 cups water.
2. Boil for 10 minutes.
3. Drain and enjoy.
Microwave Instructions:
1. Go to Start -> Program Files -> Microwave
2. Choose File -> New -> Food
3. Select "High" from the pulldown and enter number of minutes into textbox.
4. Hit OK
5. Hit Confirm
6. Choose File -> Close
7. Hit OK
8. Hit Confirm
There's going to be a surge in stove sales, I say.
With the term fried hard-drive becoming so clich?or Windows users, Gates and team sought to coin the term nuked hard-drive for their upcoming OS Longhorn.

Steve Jobs introduced his newest innovation today the iMicro
"Finally Apple has come out with something innovative and original..." Jobs proclaimed "With the launch of the iMicro, of course there is also the need to launch the iMicro store where for just 99 cents consumers will be able to buy the program to get there Hot Pockets cooked just right just think no more having to push buttons...just put the food in click 'Buy Now' button and their microwave will start cooking"
Real Networks CEO Rob Glaser pushed for a more open strategy saying they will have their own Microwave Computer out shortly and it's only fair to the consumer to have the ability to purchase the cooking program and use it on any device.
Kenmore CEO Jeffrey Immelt had no immediate comment...
And Apple thinks a PowerBook G5 would have trouble with overheating...
Another way to keep programmer at their desk.

what i really want to know is if the microwave still works?
"No, no, no... That's not what I meant by a 2.45GHz PC!!!"
I'm guessing it doesn't have WiFi.
