My Dearest Della

Hell hath no fury like a PC scorned.

To perhaps add a little levity to my friend Ron's, PC woes.

 

For eight bits

she gave me a byte

to my delight

her keyboard hummed

throughout the night

Della

a faithful slave was she

always connected

at the ready

'til Hewletta Packard climbed

into my lap

Della immediately corrupted

her software

Microsoft committed suicide

jumping out of

his windows

onto the street below

all that remained

was an XP

certainly not

the Vista she desired

with no backup

firewall police

could not investigate

from there

things became

very c/d

her pc would never

be rebooted

too many floppies

had been expended

her hard drive

over extended

our romance ended

that fatal day

when Hewletta Packard

climbed atop my lap

What a hoot! Some lady came and gave me an HP printer with all the whizbangs. Suddenly, I had all this strange software taking over my puter!

A guy from MS called last night... It's in the shop, so he will call back on Friday.

It all started that day I got my Master's degree, and some guy named David Pachard was there giving his son a Master's degree. Never trust anyone who starts out in a garage.
