"Operating systems are like underwear — nobody really wants to look at them."

Quotes about Operating Systems:

  • Applicants must also have extensive knowledge of UNIX, although they should have sufficiently good programming taste to not consider this an achievement. (MIT job advertisement)
  • Saying that XP is the most stable MS OS is like saying that asparagus is the most articulate vegetable. (Dave Barry)
  • The purpose of the icons, the purpose of the entire OS X look and feel, is to keep the customer happy during that critical period between the time of sale and the time the check clears. (Bruce Tognazini)
