  Programming tip #37: If you are genuinely worried that some luser might see a "Press any key to continue" prompt and get confused because there isn't a key marked "Any", you could say "Press a key to continue", and then lusers will simply press the "A" key instead of calling tech support. But if it isn't a commercial product and you WANT to confuse lusers, make it say "Press Any Key To Continue".

  "Bender, are you jacking on in there?"
