joke about internet in KSA
Hi
please read the following joke about internet in ksa :
Microsoft decided to open a subsidiary in Saudi
Arabia.
These were the results:
1. Every product had two versions: Singles and Family.
2. When installing any new application, in addition to
the product serial number, one has also to include his
"Iqama" number.
3. The computer will shut off automatically during
"Salat" and will not boot until "Salat" is over.
4. During Ramadan the computer will work only after
Iftar.
5. All e-mail will have to go through a special
department in customs to check if there is any mention
of alcohol.
6. A program had to be installed to automatically veil
all female pictures arriving by e-mail.
7. The computer will boot only after you enter
"Bismillah Al Rahman al Rahim" in the AUTOEXEC.BAT.
8. The Saudi National Anthem is played when the
computer boots.
9. Dialog boxes give a choice of "Insha' Allah,"
instead of "Yes"; "MaFee," instead of "No"; or "Rooh
Walli," instead of Cancel."
10. The mouse pointer is a figure of a Mataw'a with a
stick.
11. If there is any mention of Saddam Hussein in any
e-mail the computer freezes.
12. The "HELP" file had to be written in Arabic, Sri
Lankan, Urdu, Bengali and Hindu, in addition to
English.
13. If a female uses the computer, the computer
automatically detects it and starts making a back up
copy of all input; the backup can be accessed only by
a husband or a male member of the household (Mahram).
as always it was just a joke
