<p>Basically this is a fake Windows Update screen that resides entirely in your browser.<br /> With April the 1st coming up, here are the following potential practical uses:
<li> Go to an Apple Store. Type in fediafedia.com on one or all of their Macs*</li>
<li> Do the same on any of your college computers and watch the ensuing chaos</li>
<li> Use it in your office to slack off or get a much deserved break</li>
<li> Use it as an excuse in your botched PowerPoint presentations</li>
<li> Randomly type something on the keyboard and press Enter to trigger a BSOD</li>
<li> Also works on tablets and phones! For maximum confusion.</li>
