Windows XP only

This is pretty cool. It's amazing what people can do with computers.

Open Windows XP, go to start, then run.

Copy and paste this -------> "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl" without the quotes, and hit ok, watch movie

Very nice find

Wasn't sure whether it was something bad, so I did a bit of searching on google. Turns out it's perfectly safe, but for those who aren't sure and want to ruin the surprise for themselves then click copy/paste the tiny text below:

Watch Star Wars: Episode IV

ASCII art has been with us as long as we've been using computers, and there's a lot of great ASCII animation out there. How about watching the original Star Wars in ASCII animation?

A telnet server out there on the Internet serves up this amazing adaptation. Just enter telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl and hit return. You'll then be treated to a new twist on a familiar tale.

The last time I watched this, it wasn't complete, although it mentioned that scenes will be added in the future. I'm not sure how complete it is right now, but I hope to find the time to watch it again sometime soon.

If you'd like to quit before the end, you can type control-] to get to the telnet prompt. At the prompt, type quit and press return.
