_________________________________________
/ There was once a programmer who worked \
| upon microprocessors. "Look at how well |
| off I am here," he said to a mainframe |
| programmer who came to visit, "I have |
| my own operating system and file |
| storage device. I do not have to share |
| my resources with anyone. The software |
| is self-consistent and easy-to-use. Why |
| do you not quit your present job and |
| join me here?" |
| |
| The mainframe programmer then began to |
| describe his system to his friend, |
| saying: "The mainframe sits like an |
| ancient sage meditating in the midst of |
| the data center. Its disk drives lie |
| end-to-end like a great ocean of |
| machinery. The software is a |
| multi-faceted as a diamond and as |
| convoluted as a primeval jungle. The |
| programs, each unique, move through the |
| system like a swift-flowing river. That |
| is why I am happy where I am." |
| |
| The microcomputer programmer, upon |
| hearing this, fell silent. But the two |
| programmers remained friends until the |
| end of their days. |
