Mikrosopht - OS Crumbling into Tiny Bits
Download MP3

Push the button, the screen crackles, whirs and clicks emit from the box. Slowly appearing, white text on blackness. Small blue band pulsates, just so you know things aren't frozen yet. And then: "Aaaaaaaaoooooaaahhh". It's that wierd Bill-Gates-swimming-in-an- ocean-of-deap-purple-nirvana swooshy stereo sound. Yes. You have arrived. Welcome to the OS. But wait... that doesn't sound right. The box doesn't normally click that loud, and so fast... and the swooshy sound... not so purple now, sort of black, kind of red. Oh dear. Yes, I think the OS is crumbling into tiny bits!
