“My wife texted me this morning, ‘Windows frozen, won’t open’” (computer joke)

Microsoft Windows should not be confused with the windows of a house, but there are jokes.
 
“Wife to hubby at work:Windows frozen what shall I do? Hubby:Spray de-icer or hot water on them Wife: Done, now computer won’t work at all” was posted on Twitter by XxAmeliaXx on March 14, 2012. “Wyf texts hubby on a cold winters mrnin ‘Windows frozen"Hubby rep,‘pour sum luke warm water ova it’ Wyf rep ‘computer completely fucked now’” was posted on Twitter by Ƨìnƒuℓℓy♥Coπƨpîcûoúƨ on March 18, 2012.
   
The “Windows” joke went viral.
 
 
Wikipedia: Microsoft Windows
Microsoft Windows, commonly referred to as Windows, is a group of several proprietary graphical operating system families, all of which are developed and marketed by Microsoft. Each family caters to a certain sector of the computing industry.

I had a message from my mate this morning it said “Windows frozen, what should I do?” 
I replied “Pour some warm water over it.” 
He messaged back later saying “Thanks mate, I need a new laptop now!”...
