I have no idea what it is. It's an IC with it's legs bent to look like insect-legs. So it's a bug. That's part one of the explanation. A computer is chockfull of IC's that look like bugs if you bend the legs a bit. (no pun intended). So here's the link to a computer-bug. That was part two. And now for the conclusion: The millennium-bug is a computer-bug, that's why the drawing looks that way. I know it's rather far-fetched, but i think that's the idea behind the drawing. -- Peter Punk \ / ---\\\\--- / \ The number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected. (6/72)
