Is there any possibility this could somehow get you a virus or something? Dont make fun of me if this is a stupid question.

Your internet pipes are probably clogged.

Despite all the negative remarks i think it was worth it. Very cool. it's nice to see something different once in awhile.

No, slashdot wouldn't have reported it as a windows XP easter egg in 2000.

I'm sorry, however, this is quite old. I remember two years ago I was showing this to my class. Too old to be so recognized so vehemently on this site.

Mac users should try this one in GLTerminal ( <a class="user" href="http://ldopa.net/2006/01/14/glterminal/">http://ldopa.net/2006/01/14/glterminal/</a> ), which emulates a very old ( and curved ! ) terminal in your choice of green, amber or white. Flickering, baudrate simulation and network lag included.
