Yes, I believe it is called the "Windows 8 upgrade".
Windows 8 is the resurrected version of Microsoft Bob. The only thing missing is the Fisher-Price logo.

Posted on the common whiteboard at work:
Make all of the equations true by inserting as many mathematical symbols as needed, but no numbers.
0 0 0 = 6
1 1 1 = 6
2 2 2 = 6
3 3 3 = 6
4 4 4 = 6
5 5 5 = 6
7 7 7 = 6
8 8 8 = 6
9 9 9 = 6
Yes, they can all be solved for equality. What are you solutions?

(0!+0!+0!)! = 6
(1+1+1)! = 6
2+2+2 = 6
(3*3)-3 = 6
4+4-√4 = 6
5+(5/5) =6
7-(7/7) = 6
8-√8+√√8 = 6 +++WRONG!
9-√√(9*9) = 6
[edit]Forgot brackets in first one, and got 8 8 8 completely wrong! √8 != 4...[/edit]
[edit2]And forgot the exclamations marks in the first one - I need more caffeine...[/edit2]

See below for where you're wrong (0 and 8), and stupid me for the 9's

I noticed the 0 and 8 as I pressed the "post" button. Then corrected 0 badly and noticed again as I pressed post button...

Why not (0+0+0)!=6 ?

Because != is a logical operation, not a mathematical one and thus against the strict letter of the question.
Otherwise it becomes trivial:
0+0+0 != 6
1+1+1 != 6
2+2+2 = 6
3+3+3 != 6
4+4+4 != 6
5+5+5 != 6
6+6+6 != 6
7+7+7 != 6
8+8+8 != 6
9+9+9 != 6

rofl! You are right.

Zero factorial is 1 is it? (Well it is apparently) but how the hell that works I don't know. A bit like light being a particle and a wave *at the same time*. I reckon they just make it up.

You might want to recheck your answer for 4...

it was root four times four plus root four but it got fubared

Just for the eights I would suggest
3√8 + 3√8 + 3√8
I'd say the number should be allowed since it belongs to the operator.
You decide!
Cheers!

Within the office, we solved 8 without the number in the operator... but you're on the right track.

Another option for 8:
8 - Cos(8 × π) - Cos(8 × π)

Pi is a number, I think. A mad-as-a-box-of-frogs number, but still a number.

It's a mathematical symbol which represents a number.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

Don't knock the dried frog pills until you've whizzit tried them. Hmm?

Aha!
8 - √√(8 + 8) = 6
Blindingly obvious once you spot it.
Edit: And then I see that Nagy edited his post and got the answer before me.
