Here are some error messages reportedly seen on computer screens in Japan.

Aren't these better than "your computer has performed an illegal operation"?

* *
The Web site you seek
cannot be located,
but countless more exist.
* *
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
* *
Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.
* *
Windows crashed!
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
* *
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Software is like that.
* *
Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
* *
Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.
* *
A crash reduces your expensive
computer to a simple stone.
* *
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred?
* *
You step in the stream,
but the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
* *
Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.
* *
Having been erased, the document
you're seeking must now be retyped.
* *
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
* *
Screen......Mind..........
Both are blank.
