Operating System Theme Parks

You can tell its Friday; the team and I were discussing what theme parks would be like if they were modeled after popular operating systems.

We decided that:

In the Windows theme park the rides would be REALLY slow and the roller coaster cart would fall off half way round . . .

On the Linux / Unix / BSD roller coaster it would be really fast, very smooth and you could get the spanners out and customize your ride half way round. If you could work out how to get on in the first place that is . . .

And the Apple theme park would be just like the Linux / Unix / BSD park, but it would cost a fortune to get into and would look all shiny with a fresh lick of paint.
