120: Hooks are destroyed when the computer is turned on or off, and when you open or close any file or program.

121. It uses an ABCDE keyboard instead of a QWERTY one.
122. Computers running this OS are permitted on the SAT because it is so locked-down.

123. There would be no wifi
124. The only way to get sound (which is not naturally usable) is to have headphones with a 2.5mm jack

125: One model would use thirty year old hardware, but would somehow cost more than another more powerful model using ten year old hardware.

EDIT: Numbering fixed.

127: After long deliberation, they decide to include directories, but they are only one level deep.

128.  then they remove it after the serial number "G" to save a couple of cents.

129. K models would behave completely differently from all other models, as the engineers who designed the production process were doubtlessly high on something.

15- It would be epic fail
16- The OS must have bugs
17- It would have stupid C code and even weirder hand written x86 assembly
18- would not support multitasking on old CPUs without threads or multiple cores, more than 8-bit sound or colour graphics

25) It wouldn't even natively support color. You'd have to write programs to make it display colors.

130: The only way to get colors would be if you fried the LCD.
