Yesterday, my grand-boss (Is that what you call your boss's boss ? :P) gifted our team with a battery operated hand fan each. Well the special thing was there were LED circuitry in one of the blades, that caused it to display pre-programmed letters when the fan was started.
I wanted to see if we can change the letters on the display (mine said Global Operations - I wanted it to say Maddy!). The one we got was hard to program, but after talking to my grand-boss about it, and googling a little, I found that there were equivalent programmable ones... heres an example of what am talking about(courtesy http://www.sjledfan.com/images/bg1.jpg):
