You get the sense that Microsoft just piles code on top of code and somewhere in the middle of it all is MS-DOS 1.0. “Vista’s 11 Pillars of Failure” by John C. Dvorak

Wow! Today's Dinosaur Comics is one of my all-time faves, dealing as it does with zombies. Plus, it's chock full of great quotes (including the extra gags in the image tooltip and feed title).
My favorite quotes:
"But then these - stupid atomic zombies showed up? And they started zapping us with cheap-ass lightning bolts coming out of their eyes? ... It was that cheap 60s lightning where they just draw it directly on the film."
"The REAL nightmare was how poorly my subconscious understands zombies."
"instead of waking up screaming in terror, i woke up whispering "WEAAAAAAK" as hard as i could."
"round here something radiates, and something else shoots lightning out of its eyes"
Man! good stuff. Check it out.

Happy "download day!"
I DIED at "The REAL nightmare was how poorly my subconscious understands zombies."
Ryan North is still a genius.
Oh. Em. Gee. I loved the mouseover.... Hilarious!
@Rob: Thanks, you too! They passed 8 million; we'll have to see if they made the record.
@phee: Indeed he is. He'll go through a dry spell (which is still pretty entertaining), but then come back with something like this. Awesome.
@chrissa: Yep. I generally use a Dinosaur Comics quote for my IM status message. It was hard to settle on just one of these gems, but that's the one I settled on.
