2004: A Microsoft Christmas Carol
On Billy, On Stevie who was put in the lead,
There's nary a framework on desktops I see.
A fat download required to move things along,
Whilst Stevie gets richer singing marketing songs.
On Billy, On Stevie, two pals to the end,
Whilst the rest of the world is left wondering when.
When they will get it, when they will see,
That glorious framework on desktops that be.
Not someday, nor 'morrow, the world doest expect,
But sooner, not later, one must interject.
For those of us peons upon who depend,
Billy and Stevie's resources expent.
If fifty of billions can not meet these conditions,
This ISV peon can't meet Empower ambitions.
For try as he might to get code out his door,
Without that framework no customers soar.
Soar not to those heavens, no return on investment,
Whilst Stevie sings songs of his marketing vestments.
So Let's do it, Let's get it, from that one they call Case,
Who proved to the world how to distribute through space.
That place between here and that place between there,
His software on desktops is everywhere.
So in between now and in between then,
From VB to C# a coder I've been.
But try as I might, I may never succeed,
And alas may prove better at bad poetry.
