Jesus, sounds interesting. Maybe I'll try it while we zoom off to dinner
since I might not be able to go. Shrug

It is a game in KeySoft that was put there as an Easter egg. You can type
"playtime" into the "Product Key?" prompt in Key Management to access it.
You get a "falling Braille piece" which consists of 1, 2, or 3 characters.
(It falls row by row through 17 playing lines, each 5 cells wide). You can
rotate and/or move the piece laterally. The whole idea is to fill one row
(1-4s, 2-5s, 3-6s, or 7-8s). I have no idea how the scoring works, but the
BN remembers your score and updates the "high score" if you beat your last
score.
I am not sure what will happen on a VoiceNote; I would pull out all cards
and try it.
Have a great day,
Alex

I have Skype, but I am not at my PC too often. Have you figured
out exactly how the BN fills the lines of Braille? I am not sure
why it goes to a line I thought was already full sometimes. (BTW,
I consider a line full when all 5 cells have something in them.
Now that I think of it, that does not really work eather). This
seems like something HW may want to use to sell their units--I
have never heard of another device with a game in Braille like
this. I wonder how long it has been around?
Have a great day,
Alex

Alex,
Matthew Horspool told me about it over Skype.
P.S. Do you have a Skype ID?

Wow, that is really fun! How did you happen to find that, anyway?
Thanks; a new thing to keep me entertained.
Have a great day,

Dear list,
Did anybody came across a funny program called Playtime? Do the
following to
activate this program:
1. From Main Menu, go to Utilities/Key Management/Enter a New
Product Key.
2. At the product key prompt, type playtime.
3. Then it displays something funny (it looks like a board).
Note: for more help, press Space with H (Help key). To exit this
program,
press Space with E (ESC). You are then return to Key menu.
Andrew, Jonathan, do you have any clue what "playtime" is? Are
there any
more programs/gadgets that are hidden in the product key prompt?
