As a document author, I appreciate the area reviews done by GEN, SEC,

    The highlight of the annual Computer Bowl occurred when Bill Gates,
who was a judge, posed the following question to the contestants:
    "What contest, held via Usenet, is dedicated to examples of weird,
obscure, bizarre, and really bad programming?"
    After a moment of silence, Jean-Louis Gassee (ex-honcho at Apple)
hit his buzzer and answered "Windows."
