I used to live in Minneapolis, Minnesota and there was a local religious channel, I think it was channel 53 that used OS1.3 Amigas.  Back in 1996 I remember being suprised one night while channel surfing when I saw the old 1.3 workbench screen with a dialog box saying, "Please insert disk in DF0:".  The funny thing was that you could hear the mass being conducted in the background.  It was a very spiritual experience.

More recently, in 2000, I was visiting the Minneapolis/Saint Paul International Airport and on one of the informational displays above a security checkpint was the "Insert Workbench" screen, exactly like adz' avitar.  It thought that it was pretty cool.
