1 This is the chronicle of the many and diverse wanderings of the Logosites, whom BOB delivereth from the bondage of Slow Searches, and of ink and paper. And he was raised as a Prince in the Kingdom of Microsoft, until LOGOS calleth him from a burning hard drive.
2 The cries of the people came before BOB, saying, "Our Software groweth old. Take us to the Promised Software, that which is called 4.0!"
3 For many months, moaneth and whineth they for deliverance; that they may partaketh of the Software of Milk and Honey, that their Searches may be Rapid in the Land. And BOB leadeth them toward 4.0
4 But lo, they liketh not dwelling in the Wilderness, and suddenly 3.0 looketh not so bad anymore. For the Great Indexing, yea, it weareth upon their nerves, and their Collections, they findeth them not, nor did their Key Links functioneth, and their Customizations and Notes and Workspaces, they worketh not, for forty days and forty nights, when prophecies foretelleth a coming Update, yea, with MANY fixes.
5 But the Logosites waiteth not, yea, even a few hours; for they stormeth the Lines of Customer Service, and they crieth out once again unto BOB, saying, "We liketh not the wilderness, and the Great Indexing, it lasteth longer than Methuseleh's Home Movies. Taketh us back to 3.0!"
6 And BOB saith, "Um, it's still on your hard drive."
7 And behold, BOB sendeth the Testers of Beta as SPIES into the New Software. And lo, they stealthily approacheth it, and they saith, "Lo, it is ELEGANT. Its Home Page is Comely. Truly it is a land of Milk and Honey and Quick Searches, lo, Even in point-six five seconds; but there are Giant Bugs in the Land! And Customer Support helpeth us not in fighting these Bugs, even though we moaneth and waileth into our iPhones, and remindeth them of much gold we payeth through our Cards of Credit! And lo, speaketh of iPhones, that's another thing! Our FREE iPhone Apps haveth only two thousand BOOKS available, but these FREE Apps lacketh some of our BOOKS, though we once giveth much gold for them. And on the Hard Drives of our iPhones wanteth us these many BOOKS from our FREE Apps, and in no wise on the Internet."
8 And many other utterances were their moanings and whinings, and they beseecheth BOB to go back to 3.0.
9 And BOB, rolleth he his EYES, and he saith, "Um, it's still on your hard drive."
10 And LOGOS, it waiteth Forty Years before releasing 5.0, though the People crieth out for it.
Thus endeth the lesson.

Very creative Rob. Onward to the promised land. Oops! I am already threre and loving it. I can be patient and wait for the tulips to grow. Forward ever, backward never. Forward, upward, onward together. No surrender, no retreat.

Again, have you been reading the forums? Its not Logos, the publishers have to give Logos permission, as it a different format (like you bought it on tape/vinyl and now you DEMAND a Compact Disc just cos technology available. Get real... Logos are working as hard as they can to secure permissions.Again the downloading to harddrive has been said as possible in the future..

Evidently you do too Daniel, if you caught that obvious Larry the Cucumber phrase.
That was awesome!!
If they start doing video shorts on the homepages like the ones they would send every now and then in L3, this should be the first one. How about the team Logos group film this as a short acting sequence, that would be quite amusing.
Thanks Rob, really funny.

Can we get this translated into a more dynamic translation such as NIV? I dont know if you need any copyrights to get it done, but it may help some who can't understand the nuances of old English
Excellent!!!
I think we also need a Street Language Version (SLV), a Revised Street Language Version (RSLV), and a New Revised Street Language Version (NRSLV)...
