Golden Screwdriver

Concealing upgraded functionality in an apparently lower-level product, which is then restored by a ridiculously simple action, such as opening up a panel and turning a screw.

In the heyday of the mainframe, hardware upgrades were installed ahead of time and deactivated. When the customer was finally up-sold on the improvements, a sales engineer simply crawled inside and did little more than turn a screw.
The reward/effort ratio was so high that this practice was called the Golden Screwdriver.

Certain software programs appear to be sold in different versions, but in reality, these functionality tiers are controlled by the serial number the user is given to enter during registration.

Sonic Screwdriver

A cocktail containing blue Jones Soda and Vodka. The Sonic Screwdriver is a variation of the screwdriver cocktail. The name "Sonic Screwdriver" is a reference to the multi-functional tool used by The Doctor in the science-fiction show Doctor Who. "Sonic" may also be in reference to Sonic the Hedgehog due to the character and the drink both being blue. Curaçao Liqueur mixed with orange juice is also referred to as a Sonic Screwdriver.

Friend: "Awwww man!, we're all out of orange juice"

Me: "It's okay I got Jones Soda, we'll makes some Sonic Screwdrivers"

Friend: "What's that?"

Me: "Only the most delectable cocktail ever created!"

Virgin Screwdriver

A screwdriver minus the alcohol. Thus, a virgin screwdriver is merely a new way of saying "orange juice".

Johnny Q-Bert: I'm too young to drink alcohol, but I enjoy drinking a virgin screwdriver every morning before going to school.
Tracey Lafayette: Shut up slacker!
Johnny Q-Bert: Okay.

Shrek Screwdriver

A type of alcoholic drink, containing equal parts UV Blue vodka and OJ.
The mix of the blue vodka and orangy-yellow OJ makes a wonderful Shrek Green.
Hope you enjoy

Guy "Hey you want a Shrek Screwdriver?"
