The quiz, part eight: slang and servers

All right, end in sight, you're nearly there, don't give up now..

First let's answer yesterday's questions:

13) Copyleft. Because it's not copyright - geddit?

14) Easter egg. There are so many famous ones; here's a searchable database. The original were built into command line utilities in Unix, though there's a claim here that the very very first was on a DEC TECO editor. The first games one seems to have been in an Atari game in 1980.

And now today's questions:

15) What's the slang term for a device that must be plugged into a computer before certain software will operate?

16) What is the name of the file server Linksys produces?

Answers tomorrow. If you want to see the preceding questions and answers (right back to the first), click the "Challenges" hyperlink by the post title above.
