great article here. www.itsecurity.com/features/101-easter-eggs-040308/This is actually my favorite easter egg of all time here. It's not in the body of the article but the instructions are detailed in the comments section. Anyone who has Windows XP (or higher?) can do this: For all you star wars nerds out there: 1. Open Windows XP and go to Start, then run. 2. Type in or copy "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl" without the quotes. 3. Sit back and watch the ASCII movie

Although I'm not into the Star Wars franchise, I'll look at the movie when I get back to my dorm.

You guys need to watch that. It is awesome. I think it takes about 15 to 20 minutes; they did not do the whole movie.

Yeah, I was able to see it last night.
Although I'm not into the Star Wars franchise, the movie was pretty cool.

ascii art never ceases to amaze me. A whole movie with that stuff is just incredible.

Yeah, it must take a long time to make movies like that.
By the way, have you ever played a ZZT game before? They're very similar to Ascii Art since everything is made of letters, characters, and numbers. I used to play them a long time ago.

Here's a video of a ZZT game in action.
You can create your own games by downloading the ZZT engine, but I still don't know what "ZZT" stands for...

Woah that made me dizzy scrolling down.
Can't you just wiki ZZT up? I figured you'd be able to.
