Abstract
We show that, for every m ∈ N, the direct product of the m-element null semigroup and the 2c x 2c rectangular band has copies in βN. In particular, the direct product of the 2-element null semigroup and the 2 x 2 rectangular band has copies in βN. We also point out a Ramsey theoretic consequence of the latter fact.
