Easter Eggs!

What is an 'Easter Egg'?

An Easter Egg is a hidden message or game or extra something else within some software programs. It is revealed when the user carries out a series of commands or key strokes.

All Microsoft programs has Easter Eggs hidden within them prior to Windows XP.

Microsoft stopped adding these after it formed Trustworthy Computing in 2002 http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/twc/overview.mspx

Anyone remember any?

Here’s one by Google. Go to Google Classic home page and click on the I’m Feeling Lucky button and it will display a countdown in seconds to 2010.
