    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    If this wasn't in the US I'd be very tempted.

    Centipede is probably my fave computer game of all time.

    After Doom and Doom II, that is

    And it has a trackball which is essential for making it real. Whether it's as good as the one on the original machine I doubt, but hey.

    I'll have to check if I've got centipede but as you say without the roller ball it wouldn't feel right.. Same with Astoroids or Missle Command (forgot about them two didn't ya

    There was a Retrocade simulation, written in assembly language, that ran the original Atari ROM file, that ran on a PC a while back.

    It was truly superb, even with a mouse. Super fast and spot on timing wise. Mame didn't come close.

    Then Retrocade died a death for some reason. I think it lost support as Windows advanced if I remember correctly.

    Millipede the successor, was also very good.
