I Always Wanted Lawn Mowing Planner and Mr. Arty-Farty

Something that made me laugh last year for an ENTIRE afternoon, thereby annoying one of my coworkers:

Congratulations. You have purchased an Anthrax/2000 Multimedia 615x Personal Computer with Digital Doo-Dah Enhancer. It will give years of faithful service, if you ever get it up and running. Also included with your PC is a bonus pack of preinstalled software--Lawn Mowing Planner, Mr. Arty-Farty, Blank Screen Saver, and Antarctica Route Finder--which will provide hours of pointless diversion while using up most of your computer's spare memory.

--From I'm a Stranger Here Myself by Bill Bryson.
