NOTE FROM KIM:
Apparently Citibank’s ATMs run Windows.


The Top 8 Signs Your
Bank’s ATMs Run Windows


8> The guy in front of you at the ATM spends 10 minutes playing Minesweeper.

7> Your new ATM card isn’t compatible with the machines at Apple Bank.

6> Every $20 dispensed smells suspiciously like Bill Gates’ back pocket.

5> Only the original Pentium bug could screw up your bank balance that badly.

4> Every few years it takes a hundred bucks out of your account, works poorly for six months, loses important info, requires too much time to relearn, and calls the whole process an “upgrade”.

3> Your account balance is displayed as the number of times over Bill Gates could own you.

2> “Bob the Moneyclip” always popping up to ask you if you need help.

and the Number 1 Sign Your Bank’s ATMs Run Windows…

1> It’s the first ATM to suffer from cache leaks.
