There are two hidden areas in this product. The first one is not very interesting. The other is worth a closer look.
The text then scrolls up, revealing the following credits. Note the reference at the end to the Microsoft Access 1.x Easter Egg, where a pair of ducks are struck by lightning (a pair of ducks are often used to refer to the Paradox product, since "pair o' ducks" sounds the same).
