Hah, that's just showing you what's written in one/all of the TrueType Fonts. Go to Start/Control Panel/Fonts and click one of them. They all say that.

What is an "Easter Egg"? In the context of software (get that Cadbury Bunny out of your head!), an Easter Egg is a hidden feature or novelty that the programmers have put in their software. In general, it is any hidden, entertaining thing that a creator hides in their creation only for their own personal reasons. This can be anything from a hidden list of the developers, to hidden commands, to jokes, to funny animations. You'd be surprised just how many things contain Easter Eggs... http://www.eeggs.com/faq.html |

Open a game of Solitaire then press Alt + Shift + 2. |

The Rand one is used in theprinting industry and DTP lots. Thats why it is there.
When they are laying out advertisements and magazine pages, they know a journalist is going to supply an item of so many words legnth. They need to work out how it fits the page so they can put inthe pictures and ads and headlines etc. They use this function to generate random wordsof the required legnth, to use as dummy text, until the writer supplies the final copy. Sometimes called Latins or Greeks. I know as this was my trade for many years |

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. The standard Lorem Ipsum passage, used since the 1500s "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum." |
