Um - this has been going around the 'net for, what, 10 years. Did you friend 
write it 10 years ago? Or is claiming credit for something he hasn't done? Or 
did you just make up the friend so as to have some introduction to the haiku? 
:-)

Cheers
Ken

A friend of mine wrote this and he wanted the opinions of "Computer dudes and 
dudettes"
I promised him I would post it, I find it quite good.

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful
But now it is gone.

The web site you seek
Cannot be located but
Countless more exist.

Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent and reboot.
Order shall return.

Windows XP crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.

Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.

First snow, then silence.
The thousand-dollar screen dies
So beautifully.

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

You step in the stream
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky
But we never will.

Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
