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.
132.  or pressed the screen really hard

even if you dont press really hard, you get rainbow colors :)

BTW, nice dcs signature I have, eh?

hmm... is this better?  :P

136: Upgrades to the OS are free, but each one is progressively bigger and more unstable :P

137: On the bright side, they have the added functionality of blocking downgrades.

139. 52) Only two computers may communicate at a time, except by using a hub made by a third party... and software written by a third party...
(139. is an addition to calcdude's entry #52)

140. You can not upgrade your graphics card, since the LCD will turn flicker-ish because the LCD driver can't cope with the speed.

141. Any non-proprietary ports are rewired to strange card edge connections on the bottom of the (Mandatory Custom) monitor, and it crashes if you have a hard drive >32 MB :P

142: The default desktop background would consist of two lines, one horizontal and one vertical, intersecting at the center of the screen.
143: Pressing the wrong combination of keys at startup would hide all executables and delete any file that happens to be in a folder.
144: #143 would be a feature.
145: The only letter you'd be able to type with one keypress would be an uppercase X. Through a preference setting, this can be changed to T, theta, or an italic lowercase n.
146: The only way to shut it down would be to pull out all batteries and other power sources.

147: There'd be tons of security around several parts of the computer that would, over time, the users would discover that extremely simple solutions exist to remove them.
