Nice number… anyone remember what was at address 0x676 on a certain system?

    Beats me, I don't support that version of Windows anymore.

    Should I resolve the riddle already? Hint: nothing to do with Windows, or Microsoft…

    @C0D4 I had to google it to even realise that this is a joke.

    I guess you're all too young or something,,, on a Commodore Amiga with Kickstart 1.2/1.3, and only chip RAM installed, 0x676 was the base address of ExecBase, pointed to by the only guaranteed fixed address in the OS, 0x4. If you had fast RAM (starting at 0x200000), slow RAM (starting at 0xc00000), or a newer AmigaOS version, ExecBase would be somewhere else (but still the correct pointer would be found at address 0x4).

    @Lor-inc someone got the reference. I don't feel rejected now.

    @SomeNone that error isn't unique to amiga though.
