...unfortunately not nearly as funny as the first round: - - - - - - - - - - - - Seeing my great fault Through darkening blue windows I begin again - - - - - - - - - - - - The code was willing, It considered your request, But the chips were weak. - - - - - - - - - - - - Errors have occurred. We won't tell you where or why. Lazy programmers. - - - - - - - - - - - - wind catches lily scatt'ring petals to the wind segmentation fault - - - - - - - - - - - - Everything is gone; Your life's work has been destroyed. Squeeze trigger (yes/no)? - - - - - - - - - - - - Server's poor response Not quick enough for browser. Timed out, plum blossom. - - - - - - - - - - - - Login incorrect. Only perfect spellers may enter this system. - - - - - - - - - - - - Printer not ready. Could be a fatal error. Have a pen handy? - - - - - - - - - - - - This site has been moved. We'd tell you where, but then we'd have to delete you. - - - - - - - - - - - - First snow, then silence. This thousand dollar screen dies so beautifully. - - - - - - - - - - - - The Web site you seek cannot be located but endless others exist - - - - - - - - - - - - A crash reduces your expensive computer to a simple stone. - - - - - - - - - - - - No keyboard present Hit F1 to continue Zen engineering? - - - - - - - - - - - - Having been erased, The document you're seeking Must now be retyped. - - - - - - - - - - - - To have no errors Would be life without meaning No struggle, no joy.
I tried, honest. Google returned abt. 20,000 instances of Windows+haiku, but they all seemed to be cc's of the first batch. "Steve Smith" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:VHrJ8.1738$[email hidden]...

Oh dear. Activation Code See label on the casing, Or Bill will hunt you down. WSC Please don't ask us for the dates. But meditate still. GP4 will come When cherry tree falls in storm But GP2 same. 404 not found What is the use of anger When May blossoms bloom? Flat screen LCD Shows beautiful fixed pixels Until you scroll them. Searching for your file Perhaps it is in heaven Or Recycle Bin. Error - disk is full. Confucius he say "Be wise and don't reformat". Semicolon found When end of file expected Press F1 for help. AMD chip found. They are Ferrari sponsors So must be destroyed. Cannot delete file Because it is still in use The waving ash grows. -- David.
