Remember in old versions of Windows how Network was called Network Neighborhood? It was a cute name added to make networking appear more friendly. Of course, people found it rather… lame, and so Microsoft truncated it to Network, matching Mac OS X yet again.

But now it appears Apple has added a bit of an Easter Egg (though I’m not sure if it counts as one). If you open up Computer (Go menu > Computer) in Finder, switch to Cover Flow view. Take a look at Network, and you’ll see this…

I saw this just now, and had to smile… since the only way a user would see it is in Cover Flow…

Edit: Okay, fine, it is listed as the kind in Get Info… I’m not sure if this was in Tiger though. Still, the effect of Cover Flow does make it read “Network Neighborhood” which still has me remembering those Windows 95/98 days….
