    Big blue the saviour

    Motorola falls behind

    At MacWorld Boston



    And some haikus not necessarily related to power 4...



    AppleInsider

    The members there are insane

    Run off while you can



    Mac OS Jaguar

    The system never crashes

    It eats lots of RAM



    Legacy hardware

    It will not work on Jaguar

    Steve Jobs hates SCSI



    Microsoft Windows

    It steals your private info

    Bill Gates owns your soul



    MacNN hates us

    They never install v.B.

    Why MacNN why?

    The rumour lockdown prevents

    All hint of G5



    AppleInsider

    Threads get moved from wrong forums

    Dumb posters complain

    Such effusive praise

    For my meagre offering

    I am overcome.

    In lines one and three

    That nickname fits perfectly.

    It could not pass by.

    Belle is supposing

    Love lives are decomposing.

    I beg to differ.
