Found this while my little brother was doing homework. Thought it deserved to be shared.

This is funny. Though, the person who chose that awful red font needs to be punished too. I dunno how you guys can read that font, it's really hard on the eye.

time was (back in word 95 or 97 or 98 i cant remember which) if you wrote i hate bill gates into the thesaurus the entry it would point you to was the phrase "i'll drink to that!"

being a pimptastic mac OS X'er myself, i loved this.

Ha!

One of my favorite things to do to school computers is to go into Word's Auto Correct tool and make it exchange something like "the" or "a" to "YoU aRe StOoPId!!1!" I wrote one entire 2 or 3 page report without using the word "a" just to leave the setting on. :) It was pretty hard...

If you have word 97 like i still do, there are a few eggs in that:
1) Type "zzzz" in and spellcheck it. It should try and replace it with "sex"
2) type "blue" in and make it it colored blue and bold. then type a space after it, backspace, and type another space. Click on Help->About Microsoft Word and double click the word logo to get pinball :)

in excel 97 click new
hit f5
write "X97:L97" in the box (without the quotes0
hit enter
hit tab
hold ctrl and shift and click the graph wizard button on the toolbar.

it will open a very weird fllight simulator w/ excel 97's credits!
