Check out Sanjay and Eric in this piece that was originally created to promote the Microsoft ISV Buddy Program internally.

The ISV Buddy Program connects ISVs on a 1:1 basis with Microsoft Employees. Here Sanjay recites some of his favorite Windows error messages and Eric jumps in with his own poetry called "He Ain’t Kooky, He’s My Buddy".

This is hilarious! It's so awesome to see upper management at such a large company like Microsoft do something like this. I wonder if IBM executives would do this too?

Steve Balmer has some cool moves. He can break dance and pop lock. Eventually he will come out with an excersize DVD (with yoga tips) when Whitehorse ships.

Seems the .exe is not found and flash player detection has some problems. Going directly to the flash file helps..

Cool. I think there's great potential for performance poetry in the discussion of development issues. You dig?

Of course Windows did not have a lock on wacked out error messages and status dialogs. Does anyone out there remember the machine could show this message...
