[ale] OFFTOPIC: M$ Easter Eggs.

[Jonathan]

This is a prime example of lean software.  Maybe not what you are
looking for but along the same line.

Excel 97 contains a flight simulator Easter egg. 

                       To execute it: 

                        1.Open a new workbook in Excel 97 
                        2.Press <F5> (Go To) 
                        3.Type X97:L97 
                        4.Click OK 
                        5.Press <Tab> 
                        6.Concurrently Press <Ctrl-Shift> + Click the
"Chart Wizard" icon 

              Your mouse will control up/down and left/right motions.
Can you find the credits? 

              To exit, press <Ctrl-Shift-Esc>
