Easter eggs!
As someone with fond memories of the egg-stravagant Iguana flag easter egg in System 7 (hey, you could change the direction of the wind and everything! - maybe I'm just easily pleased), I have noticed a sad decline in the numbers and quality of easter eggs in subsequent versions of the Mac OS. Okay, so deleting them may have made the system more stable and less buggy (boring! ) but it's just not as much fun! And to date I have managed to uncover a grand total of zero easter eggs in OS X. Am I missing something?

What have we become?!
Maybe Steve is trying to keep our software smaller than Microsoft's... I heard at one point there was a flight simulator on MS Excel. A whole flight simulator! Maybe the reason XP is so big is that microsoft included a Monopoly easter egg in their company.
But still I miss it! I hope the Yak is still in FCP when it's X native. Ah the endless times I have spent summoning the yak...

Hmm, yes, just like the sig nazis trying to take all of the fun out of signatures... Coincedence, or.. not?
How dost thou summon this Yak thou speaketh of?
This is kind of an egg, Hold down Apple+Shift when you minimize a window.
Slow mo is kind of cool to watch.

To Lure the most wonderful beast from hiding ye must follow these steps...
ctrl (or right)-click the grey field just above the frame-counter in the canvas window.
A window will pop up saying "I'm not that easy"
Select it a few times until you get the menu that says "Call the Yak".
Select it and the yak will appear from the right-end of your screen chatting away.
If you are prepared with the knowledge of a dork ye shall be rewarded with laughs O' Plenty

I wouldn't exactly call it an egg since Steve has shown it off to crowds multiple times.

You must have missed the earlier stuff... final cut pro 2.
Am I right-clicking above the left or right counter? When I tried it, it didn't do anything, or I got close enough to the tab to have it bring up the "close window" option.
I wish to summon the Yak. Please help.
Press and Hold shift and then click on the divider of your dock. THen drag the doc to the side you want it on. No menus required. I thought it was pretty cool.
