This may be one of those "discoveries" that's already been disccussed on
LUGNET but since I couldn't find any mention of it I thought I'd ask of • the
group:

Has anyone else noticed that the standard MS Windows screen saver called • "3D
Maze" has a nod to LEGO embedded within it?

For anyone unfamiliar with this screen saver, it's pretty much as its name
says a three dimensional maze that the "viewer" zigs and zags through. • The
settings allow one to choose the texture and look of the walls, floor and
ceiling (including some groovy, ever-cycling fractal designs).

As one is flung through the maze, occasionally some of the walls will
include scenes and pictures.  One of these pictures that zooms by for a
second or two is of a blue/green globe of the earth obviously made out of
LEGO.  Stacked on the desk in front of the globe are some loose bricks of
various colors.

Not LEGO related but another standard MS screensaver, 3D pipes, occasionally
has the 'Utah Teapot' as joint.
