Something funny happened to me at work today.
I was helping a customer debug something with his server.
The server runs an OS based on Linux and he had trouble
seeing users from a trusted windows domain.

So, I turned on a debugging utility for winbindd. After about
10 minutes there was a 2mb log, so I went to lunch. When I
came back there was a 162MB text file.

When I opened it in MS Word it took about 15 minutes and
finally errored out that I reached the maximum number of pages
supported in a Word doc.

I had reached 32,000 pages. Hahah.

Anyway, I thought it was funny.

Is that just the *.doc format, or is it Word in general? Do txt and rtf formats support higher page counts?

Damn 16 bit applications... was it 32,000 exactly, or 32,767 pages?

Damn, there goes that follow up to "War and Peace" I was thinking about writing.

I wonder what program is used to write the Federal Tax Code.

good god that's fucking huge. even the biggest book i've ever read was no more than 1,200 pages.
