January 15, 1999: Secret Messages in Silicon
The Silicon Zoo displays numerous photomicrographs (i.e. microscopic pictures and messages) etched into the chips of your favorite microprocessors. Buffalo, crossword puzzles, license plates, con men, Daffy Duck, Mickey Mouse, Dilbert, Dogbert, Anubis, and the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man are among the images found.
If these are the images they revealed, imagine what was kept hidden by the Secret Masters. It's better than microfilm.
