We love Easter eggs, and one of the last ones got away from us. After the presentation of the iPhone 11, the new 10,2-inch iPad in the Apple Watch Series 5, Apple released a very original video summary in which it reviewed all the news with a very frenetic pace. Well, it turns out that, among so much speed, those of Cupertino left a nice hidden message.
Apple's hidden message
To find this hidden message, it is not enough to spot it in the Minute 1: 23 of the Apple video, and it is that it also requires certain knowledge, since the text hides a phrase written in binary. If we go to the exact minute, we can see a blue screen that imitates the old BSOD Windows (that joke stopped being funny a long time ago, Apple), where the following text can be read:
Error 09102019
This is just a thought. But it might be fun to have some sort of easter egg around here for the diehard Apple fans to stop the video.

That's the text that appears for only a fraction of a second, only right after Apple boasts that its iPad is 2 times faster than the best-selling PC. But the question is, what does that string of numbers say? Was Apple hiding some kind of further joke towards the Windows PC world? Well, the answer is even more surprising.
So you've wasted time translating this?
We love you.
Yes, Apple on this occasion, in addition to once again seeking to tickle Microsoft, has kept each and every one of the users who wasted their time deciphering the binary code. Well played Apple. well played.
If you wonder how someone has been able to find this fleeting image visible only for 6 frames, there is an explanation. Reddit user gcarsk I wanted to carefully read the fine print that appears at the time that Apple claims that the new iPad is twice as fast as the best-selling PC. When trying to scroll through the playback bar, he ran into the blue screen with great detail. And by the way, Apple claims in its fine print that the new iPad is twice as fast as the best-selling laptop in the United States in the first half of 2019. As a curiosity, according to Amazon sales in the US, the best-selling laptop in the last few months is Acer Aspire 5 Slim.
