Description

Ok, so, we've been having a lot of computer problems at my house lately involving the hard drive from my old laptop and the evils of windows. And from that comes this inspiration: what if Microsoft existed in a galaxy far far away? Think about it. The seperatist army is composed almost entirely of droids. So what if they got the blue screen of death?

Basically, they'd be screwed.

Origionally Dooku was saying "You will pay for this, Gates"
But while I was coloring this I remembered a conversation with my father where he cursed windows for hiding everything and went on a rant about how unix (I hope I spelled that right) is better because when you have a problem you can actually figure it out and fix it. Around then I pointed out how that was still useless unless you really knew what you were doing, to which he resonded "tough". That's an electrical engineer for you.

I'm really happy with the way this turned out. Hee hee, angry Grievous...
And Dooky looks much better now that I've abandoned his clone wars style.
This is my first time drawing battle droids (look at the lower left corner on the floor there, they're malfunctioning so they're all lying down and such) so I think they look ok all things considering.

Oh, and Grievous is still running because...um...he's a mac?

edit: Looking back on this, it may also have been subconsciously influenced by a gag from my sister's old webcomic. Only, without the floating head of Bill Gates.
