Once, a few years ago, after a frustrating day with some MS
Windows 3.1 bug or another, I copied win.exe to lose.exe and
henceforward used this to start up MS Windows. Sure, it was silly and
petty - but it did make me feel better for awhile :-) (and more
accurately reflected the behavior of the .exe at the time).
