The Seventh Column represents Bungie's entertaining step to world domination. Each spoke resembles a purpose. They are listed as so:

  2. Dominate Mac platform: Launch assault on Windows platform. (Complete)
  3. Announce killer gaming title. (Complete)
  4. Acquire strangely addictive Chinese food company. (In progress)

You can find these steps in the extra disk that comes in the Halo 3 Legendary edition. If you look closely, some of the wall mounted computer monitors in "Crows Nest" have white Seventh Column symbols among the contact icons. Crows nest bit courtesy of -=Ghost=-
