Lord of the OS

[Spunky]

Recently, an old friend of mine, a computer genius, came to visit me. While talking, I mentioned I had installed Windows XP in my PC and I was very pleased with the OS.

I also showed him the Windows XP CD, and to my surprise, he took it from my hands and threw it into the microwave oven, then turned it on. I was frightened by that, because it had become very precious to me, but he calmly said: 'Worry not, it won't be harmed'. After a few minutes, he took the CD from the oven and gave it to me saying: 'Look close'. To my surprise, the CD was cold and seemed heavier than before.

At first I couldn't see anything, but after a moment, I saw an inscription on the edge; the finest inscription I had ever seen. It glowed brightly, but faintly at times:

'I cannot read the the fiery letters', I said.
'No', he answered, 'but I can. The letters are hexadecimal digits, of an ancient writing, but the tongue is that of Microsoft, which I will not utter here. But in the common tongue it says:

One operating system to rule them all,
one operating system to find them,
one operating system to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them.'

[DragonDude]

That's cute, did you come up with that all by yourself?

The only problem with the story is that CDs do this when nuked in a microwave.

hex>bin =o!!!

Close! For a manual translation thats pretty damn good =p

Google "Binary Converter" and use one of those, its alot easier. I could have done it manually as well, but I'm way to lazy to do that =p
