In a similar story, Gateway’s Holstein spokescow, Bessie, was laid off last week. In a surprising development, the two have joined forces to start their own PC manufacturer.
“Bessie has worked for those Gateway dudes since 1989,” said Steven in a press conference, “and getting fired so soon after her road trip with the CEO was a major bummer. When she called me with this new idea, I was like, Awesome! We should totally do it!”
The new company, DudeRanch2000.com, will officially launch in early 2003. Details on their new product line are sketchy, but the computers will be “like way cooler than Dell,” according to Steven. “And the boxes will have cow spots.”
