A couple of years ago, a guy posted to comp.lang.c a piece of code that went
something like this: (The guy was a serious programmer on Borland C)

   while (something) {
      get user input;
      print "Processing...";
      delay for a few seconds; /* I believe there is a delay() in Borland C */
      do the actual processing;
      print "Done!\n";
   }

Point being, this practice really exists among Windows programmers (maybe a
minority).
