Yes, very interesting. Sounds plausible but like anything on the web what is the authenticity? Not to sound to pessimistic, just cautious, after all I'm still waiting for my check from Bill Gates for forwarding his email.;P

Hmmmmm. I didn't even think to question it since there were quite a few facts sprinkled into the story. Not that this source[^] is any more reliable but here is a statement that disputes this theory.
"Having visited CERN myself, I can tell you that Room 404 is not on the fourth floor - the CERN office numbering system doesn't work like that - the first digit usually refers to the *building* number (ie. building 4), and the second two to the office number. But, strangely, there is no room "04" in building "4", the offices start at "410" and work upwards - don't ask me why. Sorry to disappoint you all, but there is no Room 404 in CERN - it simply doesn't exist, and certainly hasn't been preserved as "the place where the web began". In fact, there *is* a display about this, including a model of the first NeXT server, but the whole "Room 404" thing is just a myth."Now I don't know what to believe...
