Vista

"To beta, or not to beta: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of Releasing To Manufacturing,
Or to take arms against a sea of bugs,
And by opposing end them? To TBT: to CPP;
No more; and, by CPP to say we end
The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That Vista is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished."

Bill Gates, "Hamlet" (1600-01)
 
"Fear Boys with Bugs" The Taming of the Shrew Act i Scene 2

And they sure as hell do.

"Hasta la vista, Baby" (Terminator 2: Judgment Day) ...

"Plants begin thus early to spring by the side of a logging-path,—a mere
vista through the woods, which can only be used in the winter, on account of
the stumps and fallen trees"

Henry David Thoreau “Appendix” (1864) in The Maine Woods (1864), in The
Writings of Henry David Thoreau, vol. 3, p. 335, Houghton Mifflin (1906).

I think my favourite is:

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that installs his Vista with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlefolk around the globe now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That installed with us upon Vista's day.
 
I think a few minor alterations may be permissible?

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers and sisters akin;
For those to-day that installs Vista with us
Shall be my brother and my sister thus;
be the one ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle their condition:
And gentlefolk around the globe now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhood or womanhood cheap whiles any speaks
That installed with us upon Vista's day.
