For those geeks out there, this is for you.
If you know how to Telnet, telnet to the following address and watch the original Starwars moving in ASCII. (subtitled of course!)
towel.blinkenlights.nl
For those that don't, in Windows click "Start->Run" and type in "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl" and click OK and watch.
Now, I know Vista and even Windows 7 MS is known to "disable" the telnet command. It can be enabled but, I will let someone else explain how to do it.
In Mac OSX, I'm guessing all you need to do is open a command line window and do the same "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl". (unless Apple doesn't install telnet by default)
If you add 666 to the end of it, it's the BOFH Excuse Server.
"telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl 666"
Enjoy!
