Windows 95 (funny)

Recently one of my friends, a computer wizard, payed me a visit.
As we were talking I mentioned that I had recently installed
Windows 95 on my PC, I told him how happy I was with this operating
system and showed him the Windows 95 CD. Too my surprise he threw
it into my micro-wave oven and turned on the oven. Instantly I got
very upset, because the CD had become precious to me, but he said:
'Do not worry, it is unharmed.' After a few minutes he took the CD
out, gave it to me and said: 'Take a close look at it.' To my
surprise the CD was quite cold to hold and it seemed to be heavier
than before. At first I could not see anything, but on the inner
edge of the central hole I saw a inscription, an inscription finer
than anything I have ever seen before. The inscription shone
piercingly bright, and yet remote, as if out of a great depth:

12413AEB2ED4FA5E6F7D78E78BEDE8209450920F923A40EE10 E510CC98D444AA08E1324

'I cannot understand the fiery letters,' I said.
'No but I can,' he said. 'The letters are Hex, of an ancient mode,
but the language is that of Microsoft, which I shall not utter
here. But in common English this is what it says:'

One OS to rule them all, One OS to find them,
One OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

Very funny indeed
Did you come up with this, or did some one else tell you this joke?

Huh. You know what's ironic? I was just reading that picture, when my comp froze because I had been online for 5 hours (it disconnects at that point). I had to restart it cos the stupid 'turn off' button didn't feel like working either.

Hilarious!! I love it!!

The likkle story at the beginning was a hoot. And ironically, if you looked in and found MY computer's hidden files, it would probably say about that.
