I think somebody seduced him. Or he was freraking drunk.

Probably zero chance he'd do a 20th anniversary reprise of those pics. Put Windows "Longhorn" on the monitor to lean on, Word 2003 on the one in the back and a Mac Mini instead of the 128K Mac. ;)

And she looks better.

Nah, that's Foghorn Leghorn. And besides, then Microsoft would need to release an update called, "Chichken Hawk." Of course, whenever you go to load the update, it chases your icons away, and refuses to answer to "boy."
