This reminds me. I tried playing with c++ once back in like 96. I made a
hello program on my windows 95 system and then forgot about it.
I kept that system and never reformatted all the way through to windows xp.
I could not believe it was working.
One day in 2002 or so, I entered the command prompt and bored, typed 'hello'
to my computer.
It replied by saying 'hello bob, about time you got this working'
So, after I got spooked, I remembered that program from years ago...still on
the computer.
I know off topic, but it was funny
