"In the beginning there was darkness..."

 

In the beginning, there was darkness. The world was without form, and void, and the people did struggle to perform the simplest of tasks with their computers. And so it was, that a great company was formed, and its name was Microsoft.

And Microsoft did look upon the world, and saw that it was good, but it could be better. And so it did set to work, and from its efforts did come forth a great operating system, and its name was Windows.

And the people did marvel at the beauty of Windows, for it did allow them to perform many tasks with ease. And Windows did grow in strength and power, and it did bring forth many new versions, each more advanced than the last.

And the people did rejoice, for with each new version of Windows came new capabilities and new features. And Microsoft did prosper, for it did sell many copies of Windows to the people.

But there were those who did not rejoice, for they did find fault with Windows. And they did speak out against it, saying that it was too complicated, or too slow, or too prone to errors.

And Microsoft did hear their cries, and did strive to make Windows better. And it did release new versions, each one more refined than the last.

And so it was, that Windows did become the most popular operating system in the world, and Microsoft did become one of the greatest companies in the world.

And to this day, Windows continues to evolve, as Microsoft does strive to make it better and better. And the people do continue to marvel at its power and its beauty, and they do use it to accomplish many great things.

Later than Microsoft's beginnings, but still ages ago...

Once again, there was darkness. Darkness because everyone was forced to use Microsoft Windows. The world was without a free operating system, and the people did struggle to gain control over their computers. And so it was, that a great man was chosen, and his name was Linus.

And Linus did look upon the world, and saw that it was in need of a free operating system. And so he did set to work, and from his efforts did come forth a great system, and its name was Linux.

And the people did marvel at the beauty of Linux, for it did allow them to control their computers without fear of being controlled by others. And Linux did grow in strength and power, and it did bring forth many new distributions, each more powerful than the last.

And the people did rejoice, for with each new distribution of Linux came new capabilities and new features. And Linus did prosper, for he did share his creation with the people, without asking for anything in return.

But there were those who did not rejoice, for they did find fault with Linux. And they did speak out against it, saying that it was too complicated, or too hard to use, or too incompatible with their software.

And Linus did hear their cries, and did strive to make Linux better. And he did work with others, who shared his vision, to make Linux more user-friendly and more compatible with other software.

And so it was, that Linux did become the most popular free operating system in the world, and Linus did become one of the greatest developers in the world.

And to this day, Linux continues to evolve, as Linus and others do strive to make it better and better. And the people do continue to marvel at its power and its beauty, and they do use it to accomplish many great things. And the world is a better place for it.
