Eastern Eggs "Bill Sodomite Gates" an Urban Legend?

[michelebargeman]

Someone told me that there is an eastern egg in Windows XP, It opens a
windows with message "Bill Sodomite Gates, and some witty comments". It
sounds like an urban legend. I wonder if its true. Any ideas?
Nevertheless, Bill Sodomite Gates. It sounds funny though I
remember Bill Gates mentioning in his book "The Road Ahead" about about
"Lesbian Group" and their rights, nothing offensive. Makes you wonder
though, having a wife doesn't mean anything these days.

There are no "Easter eggs" in Windows XP.

There are no "Easter eggs" in Windows XP.

No, but there is a 0 file and clock.avi, both meaningless and useless.
Some consider them to be "Easter eggs".

Ask the person who told you so.

MS was asked that question. Their official response is:
A. To supply certain government agencies with software, Microsoft can't
include undocumented features, including Easter eggs, in its software. As a
result, no Easter eggs exist in XP.

Microsoft can't include undocumented features

Funny that all their bugs are also referred to as "Undocumented
Features" by certain loving followers......

I prefer Western eggs, since I live on the West coast they are fresher
than Eastern eggs.

Nope, not true. There are some false reports of hidden text files,
though. They don't exists, at least not in any XP installs I've seen.

What does having a wife have to do with his views on other peoples' rights?

What about all the yet to be discovered, undocumented vulnerabilities?
