Broken Macs read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

RealAudio - MP3 - iTunes

Carl Malamud has spent the last 15 years or so fighting for greater public access to information on the Internet. But he recently took a short break from such serious work by assembling what he calls the Crippled Macintosh Rehabilitation Choir. It's basically a bunch Mac Powerbook computers that are broken but retain at least one ability - to read text aloud. And so as a holiday gift to the Internet he recorded them reading the classic poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.
