Is Windows a Virus?
No, Windows is not a virus. Here’s what viruses do:

1) They replicate quickly – okay, Windows does that.

2) Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so – okay, Windows does that.

3) Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk – okay, Windows does that too.

4) Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems. Sigh… Windows does that, too.

5) Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware. Yup, that’s with
Windows, too.

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature. So Windows is not a virus.

It’s a bug.

Windows is a ROYAL PIA..and updating everything caused my cd/dvd drive to malfunction & it no longer sees removable media. Yet still, mechanically, it works. Now I have to buy an external cd/dvd drive and then I'm gonna put all of my music into flash drives. I hope Bill Gates gets stuck in an elevator full of flatulent people.

Imagine a giant penis flying towards your mouth, and there’s nothing you can do about it. And you’re like "Oh man, I’m gonna have to suck this thing", and you brace yourself to suck this giant penis. But then, at the last moment, it changes trajectory and hits you in the eye. You think to yourself "Well, at least I got that out of the way", but then the giant penis rears back and stabs your eye again, and again, and again.

Eventually, this giant penis is penetrating your gray matter, and you begin to lose control of your motor skills. That’s when the giant penis slaps you across the cheek, causing you to fall out of your chair. Unable to move and at your most vulnerable, the giant penis finally lodges itself in your anus, where it rests uncomfortably for 4, maybe 5 hours. That’s what using a mac is like.
