I heard an article in the internet that Windows 95 is equal to 666 and MS-DOS 6.21 is equal to 666. What does this mean? Is it coincidence?

It doesn't mean anything. Just people being very jokey and superstitious.

Meh. Numbers are numbers.

I still think 666 is cool though. But coolness factor aside, numbers are nothing but numbers.

Never thought this thread would be that long, but now, for something different.....

But we already knew Bill Gates is in league with the Devil. After all, his name is Bill, and if you apply the right transformation matrix to the transliterated form of his name in Sanskrit, the resulting characters spell out "CWJZM" which if you screw your eyes just right, looks like "SATAN".

Let's say if this thing is not superstitious, does it mean all Windows from Windows 95 to current version of Windows has anything to do with 666? Or just Windows 95?
