Having been a Windows user since Windows 98, I find an ode appropriate to a lifeless technology that commands us, the panes of windows remaining open until completed and closed, the industrial nature of being compartmentalized to a laptop, and the oppressive clock in the bottom-right corner that makes apparent the high engineering for productivity. Windows 98 had a beautiful grayscale. Of course, I'm only this cynical when I've been at the library for too long!
