Hehe, I am not sure whether one of the comments is meant to be serious:
"As a side note, I was playing around with Volume GUIDs in Windows XP. This is
a very obscure partition layout with three disks and fourteen volumes.
[List of Volume GUIDs, all ending with 806d6172696f]
It's not that the GUIDs are very similar but the fact that all GUIDs have the
string "mario" in them. Is that a coincidence or is there an explanation behind
this? "
But the answer certainly is very funny:
"Remember that Super Mario Bros 3 ad from the 80's? All those people yelling
"Mario! Mario! Mario!" around the world upset the randomness of the universe a
bit."
;)
Cheers, Oliver
