Recently, we have seen a new side,
One which we did not know was inside.
For years we screamed and complained,
Felt ignored, and many joined the Apple train.
The products just kept getting bigger,
Demanding more from us, and each computer.
There was a lot of blame going around,
Whose fault was it for losing this ground,
Bill and Microsoft said to be evil,
With size and heft huge, unmovable.
At least now we know, perhaps a small consolation,
That even you Bill, by Microsoft, was filled with frustration.

Get up! Stand up!
Stand up for your right!

Get up! Stand up!
Vote on Digg tonight!

Get up! Stand up!
Brewin’s a big fight.

Get up! Stand up!
Between MS and the Google site.

Get up! Stand up!
They’re swingin’ around their might!

Get up! Stand up!
And - the users this may bite!

a decision made,
one bad-bad day
to install…
a try…

Some hope?
Perhaps over the horizon,
1 beyond the vista?

Four days since Terry left the board
Four more quarters - the future year, abhorred
Point by point, product by product —
Steve offers an amount that only Microsoft can afford
6 new opinions for every two other –
To the blogosphere and media they poured
Billions of eyeballs, perhaps the sought prize –
And the end of the day… Each one hoping to not be ignored.
