        The easter egg still shows the names of the programmers in OS
9.0.4 but you're right, in the newest OS updates they've shortened it
to the single blurb you list above. Frankly, given how little
recognition programmers have recieved over the years from various
companies, I'm suprised that the easter egg listing all of their
names lasted this long. Thanks for the tip though, as I hadn't
realized that they had changed it with 9.1.
