Ho-ho-ho!

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

 

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash,

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

 

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,

I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.

More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,

And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

 

"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!

On Comet! On Cupid! On Donner! On Blitzen!

To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!

Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"

 

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,

And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.

And laying his finger aside of his nose,

And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!

 

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,

And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.

But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight...

 

 

 

Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!

The night before Christmas - Mac Version.

 

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

No creatures were stirring, not even my PC mouse!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hope that Steve Jobs would answer my prayer!

 

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from my iBed to see what was the matter!

Away to the window, my eyes could not believe

That Santa Claus was really Jobs, Steve!!

 

With a little old driver, version 1.42,

Envious I was, for my PC had the flu!

More rapid than eagles his iPhone was ringing,

He spoke down the phone while his iPod was singing!

 

"Now Vixen! Now, Prancer! Now, Dancer and Dasher!

Forget about the other four, my Intel CPU is faster!

To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall!

My new iSleigh is quicker than all!"

 

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,

And began coding 10.6, when his MacBook went berserk!

And laying his finger aside of his screen,

A sad face he pulled, for his source was not clean!

 

He sprang back to his job, shut down his MacBook,

Where he left the room, up the chimney he snook!

To my surprise, my stocking was square,

"Could it be..." I screamed, "Has he answered my prayer?!"

 

Away he flew, into the moonlit sky,

His face now happy, he let out a big cry:

"To all PC owners, scared you will be!

For Steve Jobs is here, to the recycle bin you'll flee!"
