Secret Thoughts of Bill Gates

p>Secret Thoughts of Bill Gates

In February I told you I wouldn’t give up my day job to become a full time
poet. And I haven’t. However, I had a couple of rhyming words bouncing
around in my head like a song you hear in the morning and can’t get rid of
all day long. So to get rid of these words I gave them to you.

I will give $500 to the first person who can tell me how many words are in
my poem. DETAILS BELOW!

On the verge of the upcoming millennium
Dinosaurs all dead and destroyed
All await the new version of Pentium
And software from me and my boys

+

But my plan differs entirely
The Pentium does not play a part
That’s right! I’m a Macintosh user
Have been right from the start

+

Late at night in my mansion
Though tell anyone, I will not
I use the Macintosh System
It’s so much easier then DOS

+

I know the Macintosh System
works best under all kinds of stress
Unlike my Windows solution
which I know is clumsy, at best

+

Windows will always sell more
I’m baffled, I can’t understand
Why people choose my Windows
If a Mac is close at hand

+

It should be obvious to everyone
I think with a modicum of glee
Why else am I trying to copy
The Mac O/S to the tee

+

Moving ahead to the future
The year two thousand and two
The bureaucrats relax monopoly laws
At a cost, but I’m no longer blue

+

Microsoft has the marketing
Apple has the machine
I bought out the company Intel
Cause PowerPC is my dream

+

I took over Apple Computer
In the year two thousand and three
The Mac O/S I coveted
Now belongs to me

+

I bought out IBM
And Motorola too
The PowerPC is mine now
And I know just what to do

+

I’ll use the Apple computer
PowerPC installed
The Mac O/S in it’s innards
Can be beat by nothing at all

+

I’ll tell the world’s computing masses
My computer has what it takes
May I present to all of you
The future, no Windows, called AppleGate

+

I’ll say to them of all the rest
They’ll go the way of the dinosaur
`Cause AppleGate is truly the best
And Windows will be no more

+

The only software from now on
That Microsoft will make
Is software that will only work
On my computer called AppleGate

+

Now all the world’s computers
Are running the Mac O/S
It may be called The AppleGate
But it’s still, The Mac, The Best

DETAILS= APRIL FOOLS!!
