El Condor Parser

By Debbie Pickett

To the tune of "El Condor Pasa" (traditional).

I think this one evolved out of the line about MacIntoshes.

I'd rather be an Alpha than a VAX,
Yes I would, if I could,
I surely would.
I'd rather nuke a room that's full of Macs,
Yes I would, if I only could,
I surely would.

A Cray, I'd rather have a Cray,
Like some DECs that's running X;
A man gets tired of eating chips,
He lives to yearn for BogoMIPS,
For BogoMIPS.

I'd rather be an Intel than a RISC
Yes I would, if I could
I surely would
I'd rather be an eight-inch floppy disk
Yes I would, if I only could
I surely would
