    Sure, talk about ascii pr0n. The sound plays, so you get the full effect. Here's a few snaps so you can get some idea of the quality, and a snap of the font settings I find look best.

    Yeah, there were some threads about this a long time ago when that first came out. I tried it. It was cool, but gimmicky. I can't imagine actually *using* it for anything.



    Seeing as this isn't really a tech support thread, I'm moving this out of Genius Bar and into Software.
