No, actually it's because I want to call the next major TOS version
"over the rainbow" TOS.

Or maybe it's to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Wizard of Oz.

Actually, Chris was right, I got silly one night, and decided to put
in the easter egg.  I apologize to people that only have monochrome
monitors, but it would have been, er, difficult to do anything as
colorful in that 640x400 resolution. <grin>
