They're all really old/lame, except this one which I don't read as a joke but as a wonderful analogy:

DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.1 - A turtle and its shell

Too bad it's so outdated and doesn't apply to today.

I do.  My first computer was an IBM XT 286, which was an AT in an XT case, because IBM had lots of extra cases to use and didn't want to waste them.
