Comment It reminds me of this quote from slightly later (Score 2) 387
"And the Dark Lord made Orcs in mockery of Elves, and Trolls in mockery of
Ents; and he made DOS in mockery of CP/M, and Windows in mockery of Macs,
and NT in mockery of Netware; and he made Excel in mockery of VisiCalc,
and Explorer in mockery of Navigator, and Word in mockery of WordPerfect;
and he made MSNetwork in mockery of America Online; and on every side his
foes fell reeling, defeated one by one as he crushed them by sheer weight
of numbers, his hosts darkening the plain; and in the twilight years of
the Second Millenium the Free Peoples of the West said, Lo, let us face
this pestilence and destroy it, lest he turn all of Middle-Earth into a
nest of foulness. And they forged the One OS, and they called it Copland;
and they gathered their allies, the IBM Host and the Riders of Motorola,
and they prepared for the final battle."
Unfortunately, we lost the final battle, and the Darkness of Microsoft has swallowed up the land.
