Insert obvious ‘crash’ joke here

Wow. Microsoft and Fiat have teamed up to produce a Windows-based Fiat 500. The legendary reliability of a Fiat combined with the rock-solid stability of Windows! What could possibly go wrong? Enjoy the thrilling experience of a BSOD at 90 mph! Marvel at the mere three minutes it takes to start your vehicle every morning! Feel safe and secure as your car asks you if you really want to change gear again, whilst simultaneously allowing random strangers to mess with your brakes via Bluetooth! Grit your teeth manfully whilst being overtaken by little old ladies in mobility scooters as your mode of transport indexes its components and checks that its engine is still there! Pray for salvation when your car suddenly grinds to a halt in order to install two-hundred megabytes of updates right here, right now, in the fast lane of the M25!

I know, I know, the Windows bits are probably just looking after the music and GPS and that sort of thing. I drive a horrible Fiat Panda that has needed repairing too many times, and I have spent far, far too long running, fixing and reinstalling Windows systems in the past ten years. I therefore feel that I’m entitled to thoroughly ridicule this product.
