No... but I tried doing '`fortune -o`' in the PS1 of someone I didn't like
much.... didn't work. I didn't have the -o fortunes installed :-(

BTW, is there anything illegal or dodgy about putting something like

"Redhat 5.2 (Hedwig) on an i386" on a MIPS running Solaris? I thought of
doing something like that to deter crackers... wasn't sure if it was legal. 

But then you'd have to do that with the source for all the other services...
apache etc.... nevermind.
