Funny indeed.

Quoting: Part One of The Current

It's Tuesday, July 26th.

China is shutting down three stores that were posing as Apple computer outlets.

Currently ... China had also planned on closing stores selling fake Microsoft products, but the fake outlets had better computers and more reliable software than the real Microsoft.

This is the Current.
