Magnificent. The difference between PCs & Macs for Ballmer :
The economy is helpful. Paying an extra $500 for a computer in this environment — same piece of hardware — paying $500 more to get a logo on it? I think that’s a more challenging proposition for the average person than it used to be.
The difference between PCs & Macs for us :

I’m worried. I’m worried about something that is—actually—nice. And I’m sorry to write something against the development of this project. It’s all about PICOL. But, what is PICOL ?
PICOL stands for Pictorial Communication Language
and is a project to find a standard and reduced sign
system for electronic communication. PICOL is free
to use and open to alter
First of all, I want to say that I approve this project. I like the idea, it’s nice and smart. But there’s a “but”.
When you look, for the first time, at the icons, you’ll probably be impressed; the work is perfect, all the icons you’ve could think about are included. Then, you’ll imagine you could have made these icons, that you’re able to make greater and cooler icons—no. Finally, if you think a lot, you realize there’s something wrong.
Icons shapes are rough, they aren’t modern, this is bothering me. We could’ve done something far more innovative ones. The shapes look like they could have been drawned a century ago. The first thing you’ll think is that our mind has saved too many icons and logos. This is true, ask the nearest graphic designer you can catch. Well, boy, this has to change. I don’t know who is going to design these mystical icons, but I’m confident someone will take care of it someday.
Now, and as always, we should wait & see if the PICOL project is going to work.
Probably. Think, with MacBidouille.
So, why not ?
It’s not very organized, but I haven’t got much time to write stuff over here since March begun. So these are the links I want you to check. These are important.
Well,
That’s it. And you must believe me. It’s better the way it is.
