Rough use doth shake the darling buds of Redmont And Windows NT hath all too short an uptime Sometime too oft the light on the hub doth glow And often then is Linux's monitor dimm'd And every hacker from work sometime declines By chance, or flamewars unchanging course untrimm'd But thy eternal stability shall not fade Nor lose posession of that power thou owest Nor shall MS brag thou wander'st in his shade, When in eternal branches to perfection thou growest So long as men can think or hands can type So long lives FreeBSD, and this gives life to thee. > Have a good one, > Anatoly.
