You know, if this comic didn't have the title that specified this was a typical Windows-bashing moment... well, it still wouldn't be particularly funny, and Stephan's expression in panel four would still be utterly horrifying, but at least it wouldn't be just Windows. Macs do (and did) this too, you know.

Really this is much more appropriate for Apple now. Microsoft do not really have a reputation for blocking competitors' applications.

I think just about everyone who gets the joke will know it was aimed at Windows, whether or not Apple are more responsible of this behaviour.

Remove the computer's text boxes and this comic is really dirty.

Stephan, for a geek/nerd, uses a freaking ancient PC.

Even better, take out Stephan's last quote. Or the word "secretly". :smile:

You're forgetting the comic is over 10 years old.
