Twas the night before Tiger, at last to install
on my luminumPB, get ready for Fall;
The kids were IMing and chatting with glee
On their Pismo and iBooks, content with G3.
I in my cut-offs, and mom in her jams
Stretched out on the couch while I checked out my RAM.
When out from my office there came such loud chatter,
I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter.
The iBook was hung with the Beachball a glare
As it spun on the screen in an orbital stare.
I did nothing wrong, said my son in a flash,
Just checking my Hotmail through AOLs cache.
I spoke not a word, but went straight into work,
Though I thought of expressions like M$s a jerk.
In less than a wink, my wallet of tools was opened
With hopes of squelching the blues
On the screen set before me, I just about cried,
Til the first step encouraged with S.M.A.R.T =verified.
With techs out of sight, no Apple employer
To help get it right, so I pulled out DiskWarrior
And started rebuilding wheres_all_of_my_data
Now, 6 hours later, Im sort of afraida
How long this will take, how long for the fight?
It looks like Im in for the rest of the night.
So for Tiger installs and all hopes for delightful
Events of upgrading, unstressful insertion of disks
And the waiting to see something newer and better in sight.
Come tomorrow I hope that my Tiger wont bite.
