We’re kind of old-school about computers, so this is a nice shirt, to us.  It is the MS-DOS C:\> prompt.

C:\DOS
C:\DOS\RUN
RUN DOS, RUN.

There’s a bunch of good computer jokes, really, like this collected list on some guy’s website.

Here’s a clever one:

A master was explaining the nature of Tao to one of his novices. “The Tao is embodied in all software–regardless of how insignificant,” said the master.
“Is the Tao in the Unix command line?” asked the novice.
“It is difficult to find, young one, but it is certainly there.” came the reply.
“Is Tao in a hand-held calculator?” asked the novice.
“It is,” came the reply.
“Is the Tao in a video game?” continued the novice.
“It is even in a video game,” said the master.
“What about MS-DOS?”
The master coughed and shifted his position slightly. “The lesson is over for today,” he said.

The shirt is yet another woot shirt.
