Neptune reference[edit | edit source]

A file named GEMSTAR.SYS, with the version number 5.50.5179.1 was found in this Millennium build, but it is highly unlikely that a Neptune build with such a bizarre build number would've ever been compiled.

Some speculate that 5179.1 is, in fact, the result of a typo or a bug and that 5079.1 is the actual intended build number, which also makes more sense when put into the Neptune and Millennium timeline. Build 5079.1 would've likely been part of the Milestone 1 stage. Judging by the file dates, it is compiled before 12 October 1999.
