(To be sung to the tune of "When I'm Cleaning Windows") I bought a new computer, It cost two thousand pound; But every time I switch it on I keeps on falling down. I used to think it was my friend Now it drives me round the bend; You'd be surprised the time I spend Reinstalling Windows. I switch it on; what is this? Something wrong with config.sys; This isn't my idea of bliss, Reinstalling Windows. I want to share my printers and I want to share my files, I want to share my anger 'cos It drives me bloomin' wild. Load disk four, oh what fun! It says it helps you get things done; Every day now everyone's Reinstalling Windows. Load disk ten; it will say All you do is plug and play Why do I spend every day Reinstalling Windows? It can't find my printer It can't locate my mouse; The other day it told me that They were in some other house. Still unplugged, still unplayed, E-mailed God in search of aid He's far too busy I'm afraid Reinstalling Windows. Up at dawn for one more try; Does it work? Can pigs fly? How do I expect to die? Reinstalling Windows. It doesn't like my modem and Detests all CD-ROMs; let's see if the setup wizard Recognizes bombs. I used to like a drink or three; No time now, don't call for me; I'm going to spend eternity Reinstalling Windows. - Author unknown -- Ralph Stevens, Department of Materials, Queen Mary and Westfield College, Mile End Road, LONDON E1 4NS, UK, +44 (0)171 975 5155
