“ What do you mean? The software may not be sold we all have the right to eat it freely». « Does he sell the software? » Pallinux answered, amazed. Moreover, even if we went out, we would not have to feed us, that it is he who sells the software … ». Woo keeps us all in a cage and we cannot get out of here. « But… » a shy computer said with a whisper « … who are you? ». « Why are you all in jail? » he said, « Look at those sad faces… Who got you here? ». Suddenly he frowned in an attitude of deep concern and approached one of the cages. He smiled with his big mouth while the small antennas were waving on his head and turning like in a merry dance. The face of the newcomer was so infectiously funny that no one felt fear of the unknown. All the computers awoke intrigued from the small prisons and when the yellow cloud slowly cleared, each one stood with the disc tray open, in an expression of general amazement.Ī strange little thing had appeared at the point where the light fallen: it had a large orange head with two arms on the sides, supported by a long neck that was directly connected to a wheel. After a few minutes, in a rapid zigzag trajectory, the light came closer and closer until it fell down on Digitos with a huge puff of dust and noise. One cloudless night, when all the stars shone mightily trying to relieve their splendor and the sadness that enveloped the inhabitants of the Land of Digitos, from the dark of the night a light began to approach from the sky, brighter than the others, moving at great speed through space. It was really a sad life that was lived in the Land of Digitos ruled, at that time, by Mr. Woo’s army was often rotten, damaged or unsafe for the health of the computers which weakened more and more until they got so weak that they inevitably needed to be reformatted! Woo who was offering only the bare minimum and of poor quality. The software market was also controlled by the evil Mr. To survive, the Digitos computers had to eat a strange food called software, but it was very expensive and often there was not enough for everyone.

Once near the cage of the parents, he would stretch his rough and hairy arms and take the baby with him. Woo was immediately alerted and went near the baby. What so wicked a thing could happen as to force them to that life? Well, for every newborn machine, Mr. Nevertheless, at birth, computers were used to be born free and happy. When the giant shouted that word, a silence of fear fell in the Land of Digitos and all the little machines in the cages began to tremble, terrified. It meant erasing all their lives and child memories and starting a new sad cycle subjected to the wishes of Mr. This strange word was a terrible command feared by the poor computers who hoped it would never be pronounced. Woo’s aggression, the giant turned around and shouted to his slaves, the strong sound coming out of his throat: And if sometimes it happened that one of them was not able to recover from Mr. Woo was extracting a plug from his pocket, connecting it to a computer and from the other end he sucked all the sap, leaving the poor one in the cage every day more exhausted and worn out. Throughout the Land of Digitos, the inhabitants – computers – were scattered, each one segregated in a narrow metal cage. Woo always wore a long, shabby and dirty top hat that had once been white, so old and ragged that he could not even keep it up straight on his head. Over time, this terrible dictator was becoming a horrendous fire-eyed giant, walking the whole day by vibrating the heavy steps into his Kingdom, leaving behind him a trail of smoke and terror. In a world far away, in the dark Land of Digitos only populated by machines and computers, the evil Mister Woo was ruling over all. Pallinux: Artwork by Fabio “Pixel” Colinelli
