A very merry unbirthday Mr. Gates

So MS just got thumped with a half billion dollar fine. It is deserved if for no other reason than this:

1. Open a new word document
2. Type = rand (200,99) *(read below before doing this)
3. Press Enter and wait three seconds and see what happens

What you are looking at is not just one page. Check the document length at the foot of the page.

It's not an Easter Egg or virus. It's a usefull & controlable feature of Word. Here's an explanation. (http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/DummyText.htm) Not that they don't deserve whatever they get though. ;)

I'm not even going to ask quite how you found that out :D

How fortunate I read Toms response before following such ill-conceived advise:complain:

So Tom,

If it's a useful feature, just how many times have you used it?

BTM.

It wasn't advice :D

Since it is the weekend, a little light reading for the enthusiast. One more reason why MS deserves to be thumped, repeatedly:yeah:
