Swad Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 http://www.tuaw.com/2006/02/02/easter-egg-...inal-cut-pro-4/ "If we can't ship this puppy by then, we might as well be herding yaks. I'm glad it's getting weird again. I didn't understand it when it wasn't weird. The little cartoon man is messing with my head! Many Yaks were exploited during the creation of this product. I'm concerned because the cow sounded pretty threatening. When you have a car that's that uncool, you just gotta drive stupid. Don't look at me. They're not my flying monkeys. The disco ball is spinning, but no one's home. Cows didn't have dynamite and steam shovels. There exists, but you can't get there from here." :censored2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metrogirl Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 http://www.tuaw.com/2006/02/02/easter-egg-...inal-cut-pro-4/.... Don't look at me. They're not my flying monkeys. The disco ball is spinning, but no one's home. ... :censored2: I think the flying monkeys/disco ball reference could be from the easter eggs in Photoshop CS/CS2. If you hold down the CTRL key when clicking "help/about" you get a very different splash screen. It works on PC or Mac versions, and has done for several releases (different screens per release). The keys I gave are PC keys but they're either the same for Mac or similar modifiers when selecting 'about'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Bond Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hah...interesting to hear it straight from one of the developer's mouths. I want to see a picture of this infamous Yak in action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grabberslasher Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hah...interesting to hear it straight from one of the developer's mouths. I want to see a picture of this infamous Yak in action. Bruce the Wonder Yak. What a legend I've used FCP (and had it open 24/7) from version 3 to 5 and unfortunately never seen Bruce. What a pity - I tried some of the shortcuts to invoke him but no. I think he's unscreenshottable too. Edit: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bond Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Hah....that is great. FYI... If you go to the Button Menu and type in "Bruce" (delete the shift key) there will be a button that says "Call the Yak". Drag it into the button field atop any window (ie. browser) between the two small bars. Hit the button, and Bruce will appear. But be warned, if you move your mouse while he's eating (even the slightest bit) he will get scared and leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
