with an Apple Macintosh
you can't run Radio Shack programs
in its disc drive.
nor can a Commodore 64
drive read a file
you have created on an
IBM Personal Computer.
both Kaypro and Osborne computers use
the CP/M operating system
but can't read each other's
handwriting
for they format (write
on) discs in different
ways.
the Tandy 2000 runs MS-DOS but
can't use most programs produced for
the IBM Personal Computer
unless certain
bits and bytes are
altered
but the wind still blows over
Savannah
and in the Spring
the turkey buzzard struts and
flounces before his
hens.

Hey, deadly_risk, we can make "lerty" a new slang word for you. That'll be your word from now on!!! You know, instead of "dufus" (Dani) or "lolo" (Marc), you'll be the "lerty" one  

Hey, like we were paying attention to you anyway!!  

ACK!!!

I've had a few more TWC after this original one (I did end up with 4 entries for TWC #1).  Now, I'm on TWC #5 and wanted to bump this back up in case anyone would like to enter it:
