How things would be different if Microsoft was headquartered in South Georgia:  

 

 

 

 

1. Their #1 product would be Microsoft Winders

 

2. Instead of an hourglass icon you'd get an empty beer bottle

 

3. Occasionally you'd bring up a window that was covered with a hefty bag

 

4. Dialog boxes would give you the choice of "Ahh-ight" or "Naw"

 

5. Instead of "Ta-Da!", the opening sound would be Dueling Banjos

 

6. The "Recycle Bin" in Winders '95 would be an outhouse

 

7. Whenever you pulled up the Sound Player you'd hear a digitized drunk redneck yelling "Freebird!"

 

8. Instead of "Start Me Up", the Winders '95 theme song would be Achy-Breaky Heart

 

9. PowerPoint would be named "ParPawnt"

 

10. Microsoft's programming tools would be "Vishul Basic" and Vishul C++"

 

11. Winders 95 logo would incorporate the Confederate Flag

 

12. Microsoft Word would be just that: one word

 

13. Instead of latte carts we'd have grits carts

 

14. New Shutdown WAV: "Y'all come back now, Yah hear?!"

 

15. Instead of VP, Microsoft big shots would be called "Cuz"

 

16. Hardware could be repaired using parts from an old Trans Am

 

17. Microsoft Office replaced with Micr'sawft Henhouse

 

18. Four words: Daisy Duke Screen Saver

 

19. Well, the first thing you know, old Bill's a billionaire

 

20. Speadsheet software would include examples to inventory dead cars in your front yard

 

21. Flight Simulator replaced by Tractor pull Simulator

 

22. Microsoft CEO: Bubba Gates

    • On 2021 3500hd it consistently sets automatically when selecting park if the incline/decline is above a certain angle. 
    • Curious, did anyone ever get a fix for the vibration reported here.   I have a 2024 Silverado with 6.6 duramax.   I’m noting the same vibration resonating up through the steering shaft into the steering wheel.    Best way to describe- like someone is tapping on the steering shaft/components and it’s resonating into the steering wheel.    thanks. 
    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.
