There's an easter egg:

Insert two coins and Ms. Pacman shows up and you can play two player (use the WASD keys for Ms. Pacman)

Productivity likely took a precipitous drop on Friday as office workers discovered an animated, playable version of Pac-Man in Google's logo on its home search page.

....

Google said users will have 48 hours to play 255 levels of the game before it goes down.

48 hours? That is ridiculous. I will have to send an angry email.

Finally a game with no flashing banners and advertisements all over the place. This is why I love Google.

Anybody make it past level 5?

You could just "borrow" the java code and set up another webpage to run it.....
