One of my favorite programming ballads is Frank Hayes S-100: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow78cUDdTOg

To tell the truth the source of all our troubles seems to be

A committee on computers of the I of triple E

They settled on a standard spec 696 by name

Now everything is standardized but nothing works the same

Yeah. It was on a record called The World's Funniest Computer Songs. Some others are pretty good too. Seems to be on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAuyUHpLzsI
