Nothing like the beauty of windows having a modern UI with a hard drive icon drawn by some intern in 1998

If it makes you feel any better the intern got hired full-time.

The best part about this is that the keyboard company likely followed tutorials for building their device drivers and never substituted the default image (which is a fictitious company called Fabrikam):

And someone is now selling attire under the Fabrikam name with just the page title as “Microsoft”
