    How the Gates (Almost) Stole Christmas

    ‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
    Blue screens were everywhere; no response from the mouse
    Windows, it seems, had decided to die
    Because it had updated; we didn’t know why
    But Santa had a plan while we were all in bed
    He reformatted our server and installed Linux instead
    In the morning we rushed in and what did we see?
    Programs were running, and most of them free!
    There was Chrome and Open Office and emacs for me
    Not a penny was going to Mr. Gates’ fee
    Now we have no more blue screens, ever, of course
    Because Santa turned us on to that sweet open source
