A Microsoft employee passes away and is met by an angel. The angel says
"You have passed away and now you need to decide whether you want to go
to heaven or hell.  I will show you both first so you can make your
decision."

*** Poof ***
     
The MS guy finds himself on a sunny beach with lots of pretty women in
bikinis playing vollyball.  There is a cooler full of beer and great
music playing in the party atmosphere.  "So this is heaven?" the MS
guy asks.  "No, this is hell." replies the angel.  The MS guy then
asks the angel if he can see heaven.

*** Poof ***

Now the MS guy finds himself in serene setting with people sitting on a
park bench feeding pigeons.  The MS guy  says, "Man, this looks boring.
I'll go to hell."
     
*** Poof ***

The MS guy finds himself up to his neck in lava and there are screams
everywhere.  "What about the beach and the women in bikinis?"

"Oh, that was just the demo."
