<div class="IPBDescription">This is... So cool...</div> Go to Start/run/ then type telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl and hit enter, what your about to see is star wars, already on your computer.
Star Wars, only on my computer? Yeah, I think I want some clarification before I connect to telnet or whatever and let it do what it wants to my computer.
Excuse me for being a bit skeptical, but will I be able to close this if I open it?

Seeing as it came with Xp, im not going to doubt you. But whats the point of sticking your head in the door for a few seconds only to say how old it is?
Y-You guys don't know what Telnet is? I feel a great pain in my heart... Don't you remember the early days of multiplayer gaming? MUDs, MOOs, MUSHes, MUCKs?

I've seen it before, but it definitely doesn't come with XP. Like caboose said, it's a connection to a remote server. It probably wouldn't take up much bandwidth because it's just text [and it's unlikely that a hostile connection would have execution priviliges on your machine]. It's interesting, though. Was it made manually, or was there a quick convert program used?

That still doesn't clarify anything...
I don't know how to say this nicley... You are a freaking moron if you think that...
Do you know what telnet is? It's a protocol to connect to a remote server. This did not come with XP...
Edit: Im yet to fuse with the internet to gain ultimate knowledge.

yes, upuntill I got GMail I was still ussing PINE, seeing how as it had the best UI I had run into.

It ended before it got all the way through the movie.
