Funny Happenings in Kuwait's Marina Mall

Magnus · 17th July 2008, 19:25

We've spent the day in Kuwait City, mainly for some meetings. When we entered Marina Mall there was a huge Windows error message projected onto the floor. That was a good start to the day:

Later also in Marina Mall there was a small kiosk which sold internet connections, "My Internet". That's not the funny thing. What was funny was that they were running a video on a screen and in the middle of the video it says "Prepared with Flip4Mac Trial".

Besides these things there seem to be some exciting things happening in Kuwait when it comes to Apple stuff. We hope there will be some announcements made in the near future.

I guess the first one happens.
But to use trial ware on official business material!!
That is down right stupid and audacious.
Which shows you that the piracy discussion a few days back has some weight.

I mean what business model can't afford that cheap software??!!
Would you want to be part of that?

The first pic hardly surprises me, I mean I am so used to seeing windows systems crash in very public areas, it crashed in Dubai Airport near the baggage collection area.

Plus, my laptop crashes so often that it has become as normal as booting/shutting down

Should have tried to press alt-ctrl-del with your foot.

LOL
Unfortunately, Windows doesn't support "multi step" functions.
You will have to use the provided hammer to hard reboot.
