A Parable for Our TImes

There was once man, his eyes wild with grief, who approached the Buddha saying "My whole day's work has gone down the toilet thanks to Microsoft. Please make this sodding programme work properly." Buddha replied saying "knock on every door in your village and if you can find one person who has never been screwed by Bill Gates I will fix your computer." The man quickly realised that suffering is intrinsic to Microsoft products and sought release from the endless cycle of trying to fix his Word document formatting only to have something else go wrong.
