I've seen several requests on the newsgroup for the easter egg keys, so
I dug out the notes I've collected and compiled them into an FEAQ (Frequent
Easter Egg Questions) file.

Collected from various sources; the names in each entry show where
I got the info, which may or may not be where the egg was first
discovered. As usual, should you be caught or captured ... oops,
wrong tape. No warranties, express or implied; your milage may
vary, and there may be weather tomorrow. Contributions of additional
Easter Eggs gleefully accepted and will be posted on a totally random
basis.
BTW: I can't confirm any of the Mac material since my Mac is held up
somewhere in the depths of the purchasing office. The PC eggs are
valid.
