Swedish Campground

Have you ever asked yourself what the meaning of the peculiar symbol on the command key of you Mac keyboard is? Several weeks ago I saw it on a sign near Uppsala's Castle (unfortunately I forgot to take a photo) and was even more confused.
The Swedish sign for a sight.
Today I found the answer. It is the Swedish sign for a place worth visiting (sv: en sevärdhet). The website folklore.org, which publishes "anecdotes about the development of Apple's original Macintosh computer, and the people who created it", ran a story about the so called "Swedish Campground."

If you ask yourself why this post occurred not until 4 days after it was published: I had some weird problems with Blogger which I now solved by changing from FTP to sftp file transfer.

Big thanks to my ISP for activating the ssh account within 22 minutes at half past eleven in the night—you guys really work for your money.
