A bit tired, and frankly, somewhat financially drained from going out every single weekend, I chose to be a homebody these past two weeks and take pleasure in the wonderful multimedia that Youtube has to offer.

I'm into computers, so one of the recommended videos was a commercial for Windows 95 from around the time the operating system was launched.

It's about a minute long and contains various scenes of children and adults making use of the new operating system in schools, on the road and at home. It's also set to The Rolling Stones' well-known "Start Me Up."

It's also the most inspirational piece of video I've seen in a while.

What does it for me is the cross between the getting-you-pumped-up music and lyrics and the scenes fo people fawning over the new OS that really gets me going. There's such promise in this video of something great and something big being debuted that it inspires me to go out and accomplish the same thing.

You see the kids smiling, the adults mouthing "Wow" and the operating system seemingly handling 3D games, word processing and more with ease. New technology is fast and wondrous and you've got to have it; the commercial implies.

it's more than fanboying over the product, though. Windows was and continues to be a hallmark of the computing industry, having owned a large part of the market share for a little over a decade now.

While I don't pretend to spearhead the creation of an operating system to beat Windows, I do know that I want to accomplish something big. I'm not a hundred percent sure yet as to what field my big accomplishment will be in, but I know I want it to be something that's used by a lot of people for an appreciably lengthy amount of time. If it's a small-time accomplishment useful for an esoteric few, then forget about it.

Vince Guaraldi Trio, a musician who composed the music for A Charlie Brown Christmas, echoed my sentiments about accomplishing a timeless feat. In a conversation about his music, he said he wanted to write and produce standards that wouldn't be forgotten, not just music that would serve a purpose at a given time in history and then be forgotten. Lo and behold, he did - look up "O Tannenbaum VInce Guaraldi Trio" on Youtube and get ready for a throwback.

Well, I too want to accomplish a timeless feat. Now I've just got to figure out what it will be.
