Willie:

I remember that episode!

You should have learned something very important from that particular 
episode. That is the importance of updating your Operating System; doing so can 
actually end wars!

I also hear that Bill Gates loved this particular episode as well. I heard 
that about four years ago, he bought a complete DVD set of the old Star Trek 
series. One of the first episodes was the very one to which you refer. By 
drilling further down into this story, I found that this show was Bill's inspiration 
for creating Windows Vista. 

That's why the original Star trek was the best; it impacted a lot of 
different people in a lot of different ways. Funny how things turn out, yes?
