I have my good old matrix code emulator, gotta love it, except for when visitors look up and ask what is wrong with your computer.

The Matrix Code emulator, you gotta love it. I have 3 PC's at my desk, all with it. I agree with Barry, It's almost not worth doing anything to see it run.... Just don't let the Boss man hear that.

Flying windows!?!?! Gag...bleck...wretch....

I am known for changing my backgrounds and screensavers frequently to alleviate boredom. At Halloween I had one with a nice Italianate Victorian spookily lit and a black cat slinking by with an owl in the tree and eerie horror movie music. Some of my repeat favorites: scrolling marquee with the text "You...yes, YOU....get OFF my computer!", Flying thru Space (looks like a snow storm to me), and 3-D maze set with psychedelic colors. Right now I have something called Snoqualmie that Septfox downloaded. It's set on 'tile of mystery' with the zodiac signs--looks *really* cool, pulsating bursts of color in an almost lotus-like fashion.....

Heh, I use the basic scrolling marquee...but I keep changing the words. Right now it says, "Yo duermo, yo sueño..." I change about once a week.

I remember those days, I could sit up and watch the computer for hours. (Okay well minutes.) I wonder what happened to that disk it was on.
