sorry if this is off-topic, but i typed it a wrong directory in icculus.org and got the message below. i just find it very funny. lol.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

> find link
You stumble around trying to find http://icculus.org/blackbox, but your hands grasp nothing except dirt and rock. You eventually touch something solid, and lift it up. As you bring it to your eyes, you squint to find that it is a random ray gun of damnation.

> quit
Your score is 25 out of a possible 375. This gives you the rank of hoser.
Are you sure you want to give up [y/N]? : y

That's hilarious. If you keep going to it different times you get different items in the second part. I saw:

A verbose sword of damnation
An overbearing Lego block of speed
and
an obfuscated scroll of vegetarianism

what's the name of the OS that uses a 3d desktop? I saw a video of it on the developement area of the MS website, but I can't find it anymore. It showed them working on this 3D desktop where it's like one room and you navigate around it, instead of icons, it's little preview windows of the application and you hang them on the wall, apparently test users prefered it to the current GUIs O_o
