   The most ingenious one I ever saw was one where somebody put:   
      
   prompt "Please Enter Password:"   
      
   into the autoexec.bat.  Thus changing the prompt to "Please Enter Password"   
   rather than the normal C:\>   
      
   I'm assuming you meant for the "prompt" command to be before the "READY>" in   
   your example?
