I liked that -- but only until I heard the version by Bruce
Woolley and the Camera Club.  A much, much better take on it than
the Buggles' -- a total new-wave period piece.  Thomas Dolby
played keyboards, as I just now found out...

You can't really call either version a cover; the song was
written by Woolley, Horn, and Downs, and both versions came out
in 1979.

A distributed system is one on which I cannot get any work done,
