OpenOffice Easter Egg

I came across another easter egg this afternoon I thought I would share before I forgot about it.  This one is related to OpenOffice.  To find this easter egg do the following:

Start OpenOffice Spreadsheet (Applications > Office > OpenOffice Spreadsheet)

Within an empty field, type: =GAME("StarWars")

Enjoy

    I have to say that while some of these EasterEggs are neat I have better use for my disk space.

    This is awesome! I’ve been looking for more ways to distract myself when I’m pretending to work.

    If you write StarWars in lower case it says “say what?” instead of loading the game

    I found one more easter egg from http://www.openofficetips.com. Open a new calc and in any cell type =starcalcteam() to find the team members behind this project.

    Also, if you quit the game, and then try to run it again without restarting Open Office, then you get the message “oh no,m not again!”
