    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?

    Oh, it's just ASCII Star Wars. Seen it, it's pretty cool though.

    Hmm, it really works. Not sure if I want to watch it in ASCII format though.

    I heard that took like... 8 solid years of MANUAL ASCII ART.

    This is so incredibly old...
  • POOP_AkiraPOOP_Akira Join Date: 2003-11-23 Member: 23468Members
    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?
  • CabooseCaboose title = name(self, handle) Join Date: 2003-02-15 Member: 13597Members, Constellation
    Came with XP?...

    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...

    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?

    Whoever the moron leeching someone's bandwidth is, cut it out. I don't need an annoying popup everytime I view a post you've posted in.

    Get Firefox, or even the Google Toolbar if you insist on using IE, and you won't ever see an annoying popup again.

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

    I couldn't watch it more than 5 minutes. Way too boring, though I give them props for actually wasting time on this.
  • eedioteediot Join Date: 2003-02-24 Member: 13903Members
    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?
