Microsoft Windows 95 Stuns World

Redmond, Wash (AP) - Fans and detractors of the long-awaited Microsoft
Windows 95 have been stunned and amazed by the incredible events
surrounding the August 24 release. Windows 95 has been hailed by industry
giant Pierson Holcombe Pewter as "the most advanced operating system ever
produced." But even he could not have predicted yesterday's events.

It began when peace was declared in Bosnia. Said Ahmad G'Hui,
spokesperson for the Serbs, "Now that [Windows 95] has been released, we
just don't see any reason to fight each other. This is an amazing
product."

Then France announced its intention to stop all testing of nuclear
weapons. "We used to think that our national boundaries were of utmost
import. To safeguard them, it was necessary to continue testing [nuclear
weapons]," said Jacques Fenetre of the French government. "The Microsoft
Network (tm) has changed all of that. It's such a small planet!"

On the other side of the "small planet", George Bush and Saddam Hussein
met face-to-face for the first time. After a tense greeting, they started
sharing notes about their experiences as Windows 95 beta-testers. Soon
the two lifelong enemies were laughing and chatting like old friends. In
a startling display of candor, Hussein said "If I hadn't been so
frustrated with the beta, I'd have backed off from Kuwait much sooner."
Bush laughed and commiserated with Hussein, saying "Well, Saddam, I *told*
you it'd be released eventually, all you had to do was wait. Hey! Let's
play some FreeCell!"

Oil prices dropped as OPEC transferred their accounting software to the
new platform. Loggers in the United States' Pacific Northwest turned
their axes in for spades after seeing a Microsoft Video of spotted owls
using Windows 95. In an economic shocker, the Peso reversed its downward
spiral due to huge Windows 95 sales in Acapulco and Mexico City.

On the health front, Hildegard Wicca, a housewife in Boston, MA, reports
that Windows 95 has removed her facial warts. "I sat down in front of
the computer, pressed 'Start', and felt something odd on my face. When
I looked in a mirror, my warts were gone!" Even more amazing is the story
of Mark Cense, the Los Alamos man who was reported last week as having an
incurable, fatal form of cancer. His doctors were amazed yesterday when,
after simply buying Windows 95 at the local Computer Universe store, his
cancer went into remission.

When asked for a comment on these almost miraculous events, Microsoft's
Bill Gates, recently declared to be the richest man in the United States,
replied "If you think *this* is good, just wait until you see Windows 97!"

Reports that China's release of dissident Harry Wu was contingent on his
returning with "as many copies of Windows 95 as he can carry" are
unconfirmed at this time.
