I don't remember how I learned it, but back when my family had a IIci I remember there was a startup key command you could press to display an image of the developers in the ROM. I kind of miss the days when that sort of thing was done.

In the Commodore Amiga you can turn off and on the power light. Weird for these times.

#17This brings back fond memories of the various Blue Meanies easter eggs in System 7.0.1 on my first Mac (actually my dad's LC). "Help! Help! We're being held prisoner in a system software factory!"

#19Lots of great 90s Apple Easter Eggs are listed here (the PDF): https://www.macintoshrepository.org/226-apple-easter-eggs My favorite one is the story of an engineer who hid an image of Paula Abdul on a CD-ROM (another version I heard was a ROM chip) without anyone’s knowledge. When the image was finally discovered production had already begun, making for a very expensive Easter egg to remove.
