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?

In lines one and three
That nickname fits perfectly.
It could not pass by.

I beg to differ.
