This reminds me of an old Bloom County comic in which Bill Gates becomes Pope.

Too bad the thread didn't read, "MS buys the farm"...

you realize that mid-sermon the priest is going to read out "and then there was a BSOD ERROR 097FABDC005763 BAD MEM ALLOC 0001101011010101 .... 00110010110" and suddely stop talking. Then the "reboot the priest" light will turn on and someone will have to reboot him.

Of course we'll have like 50 new features, such as "save this sermon as..." and "copy" and "paste".
