>From memory there is a Linux specific one:
You arrive at a spartan but functional airport, and are ushered aboard a
powerful plane. You arrive to find that your seat is in pieces but there is
a screwdriver, and a 'Seat Construction in 5 Simple Steps' manual. You build
a comfortable ergonmic seat and enjoy your journey so much that you rave
about it to everyone.
But all they can say is "You have to build your own seat?"
