    If you're running Vista, the telnet client isn't installed by default, you have to go into Programs & Features and enable it.

                Same here... of course, it might have something to do with the 15-20 odd times I watched Star Wars when it first came out. :-D -- Ian

                            someone did - you can enable an ascii codec/filter in VLC player[^] which does it on the fly. very cool indeed.

                            Do you know why it's important to make fast decisions? Because you give yourself more time to correct your mistakes, when you find out that you made the wrong one. Chris Meech on deciding whether to go to his daughters graduation or a Neil Young concert

                              I haven't had time to watch this all the way through yet. Does Han shoot first in this version like in the original or shoot second like in the re-release? If he doesn't shoot first then I don't want to watch it.

For he is not your average stoner who has a great idea when he is high, then forgets about it until the next time... He follows through on the thought! And for that we should all be thankful.

                                          I don't know what's worse - the amount of time this guy put into this, or the fact that I can actually remember most of the music, sound effects, and voices for the actors parts and can hear it in my head as this is playing! :)

                                          Yeah exactly. It's uncanny just how ingrained this movie is in so many people. So good. I had no idea that you could do something like this with telnet. Too cool!
