OK, now it can be TOLD! Enough years have passed so it should be OK. 
Back in 1999 the worst kept secret among employees at RedHat was the 
knowledge that there was one hidden computer, buried in the basement 
under heaps of cardboard boxes, that ran Windows in order to manage the 
automatic CD writing and printing machine. It refused to work under 
Linux and the CD's had to be created. There ya go, useful work. Ric
