I would guess that this is probably a left-over from the initial testing and debugging. The 1st number is the number of paragraphs and the second number is the number of times "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." is repeated in the paragraph.
I think that it can't be an initial testing debugging, because it appears in other languages too. In spanish it says: "El veloz murciélago hindú comía feliz cardillo y kiwi." I think that its only a joke of the programmers staff. Or a "whater mark" to assure that the code is from microsoft. If someone stole or reverse some code, microsoft could say "hey, write this.... and i'll prove that that code is mine" Regards, -- Alberto Román alberto.roman () afina es
