The Original Computer

I came across the following recently and realised how much IT has influenced the usage of the English Language. It also shows how close the computer resembles the human brain. Nevertheless, no matter how much the computer may advance, it is still no match for the human brain where creativity is needed.
Enjoy the snippet below.

Memory was something you lost with age
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity

A keyboard was a piano
A web was a spider's home
A virus was the flu
A CD was a bank account

A hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived

And if you had a 3 inch floppy .

. . you just hoped nobody ever found out!
