- Part B (Easier): Moof is the sound the dogcow makes.
-
- Part A (Hide small children): The dogcow is the mascot of Mac DTS. It
- first showed up in (I think) an early version of the Cairo font and
- drinks Mountain Dew. It is two-dimensional, and cannot be seen
- head-on. Apple at one point published a tech note about it (#32, which
- had been noted as reserved up until around the time #170 came out, and
- I think it got used for real more recently). The LaserWriter setup
- (most of the time) has the dogcow as the image in the little image to
- show you how the selections you've made will affect the printout. In
- the Arabic version, the image was a horse instead.
