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 :)

Let the farce be with you.

pretty cool. I`m afraid I don`t know how it`s running within a dosbox and why port 23 has to be open but it is really a smart thing.

That's incredible! it's like that kind of chiptunes that some years ago were played as intro of some videogames. ART, indeed! :-D
