Greetings from rain-soaked, hot-and-steamy Florida, USA, St. Pete Beach to be more precise...
I was spending some idle time looking at things I usually don't look at. I happened upon the "Project Web Pages" category, and "I'll take 'Screensaver info', Jack, for 200 dollars"... I got the answers right for the blue "L", the red "L", the green "L", and the orange "gun sight". Then Jack hit me with the white "L". I suggested it might be a sign of surrender, but no. I missed the chance at a million boxes. But there was a bonus question for twice that much:
"What windoze [sic] keys perform the same function as the left and right mouse buttons when not in screensaver mode?".
Missed that one, too. There's a topic for it on the link provided in BOINC (http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/starsphere.php), but only mouse info is offered.
To sum up this poor attempt at a playful post in a serious and concise manner:
1.) What does the white "L" on the graphics visual represent?
2.) When graphics are displayed in a separate window and not as a screen saver, What keys on a Windows keyboard perform the same function as the left and right mouse buttons?
