Isn't it so that when Windows 10 was released, Windows representatives were wearing T-shirts looking like a core dump? I have seen a photo of people wearing the T-shirts. When I read 'somewhere' (i.e. I have no URL) that if you decoded it as ASCII character values, it would read 'Seven ate nine' (or possibly 'Seven eight nine' - I am not sure) - I trusted those claims, not verifying them myself. On a related track: When WD introduced their external 'Elements' USB disks, in the 'large' cabinets - more than 5 cm thick - one of my radio amateur friends made me aware that the ventilation slots, seven rows of small squares and rectangles, was a Morse encoding of an ad message. I dug out my old 'Scouting for Boys Handbook' to refresh my Morse, and he was right! To be honest: I decoded only the very start of it (my Morse is somewhat rusty :-)), trusting that the rest is 'true' Morse as well. I bet that more than 99 of 100 buyers of the WD 'Elements' never knew that the ventilation holes holds an ad message!

I'll bet that 99 out of 100 buyers were neither boy scouts nor amateur radio enthusiasts.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows. -- 6079 Smith W.
