hehe.. reminds me of the web page my friend made .. he took the win95
start button, relabelled it 'crash', and made the button load a java
applet that crashed your client :)

here's a bit of random trivia .. you can remove the start menu from
win95's desktop .. click on the button, hit escape, alt+-, and close.  bye
bye start menu.  i pulled that little trick off at comdex right before the
microsquash guys did a presentation.. man were they confused.

hehe
