If you installed windows on a vacuum cleaner, would it still suck?

For every form of knowledge there is an equal but opposite form of knowledge.

If I installed Mac OS X on imitation diamonds, would they still be inexpensive?

Furthermore I fail to see the potential for computerized diamonds, wheras a computerized vacuum cleaner would have potential in the area of automation.

Furthermore, as a day to day windows (only, for the most part) user I myself do not find the remarks infammitory, and believe that anyone with suficient experience would also agree, unless they bear the last name of Ballimer.  (or Tempest)

“If you installed windows on a vacuum cleaner, would it still suck?”

Isn’t it, “If you installed [operating system that doesn’t suck] on a vacuum cleaner, would it still suck?"…

It’s long been rumored that the only thing Microsoft could make that WOULDN’T suck is a vacuum cleaner.  I suppose you could try some BattleBots-meets-Little-Shop-of-Horrors-meets-MIT experiment where you meld a Mac mini (or other small computer) to a vacuum cleaner and test the results, but I wouldn’t recommend trying it on your mom’s Hoover.  Or mini, for that matter.
