Hey Friends, if u want to see Star wars movie in ur computer system then, follow the steps:-


1. Ur operating system should be XP.

2.Then connect to the internet.

3.Then finally type " telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl " into the RUN menu.





















Microsoft hid a version of Star Wars done entirely with ASCII in the Windows XP operating system.

Heres how you do it:


1.)Take any headphone you want. Don't matter if its the buds or the ones that go around your ear.

2.)Open up Sound Recorder(If your using Windows)

3.)Plugin your headphones in the Pink Jack on your Laptop or Desktop.

4.)Press the record button on Sound Recorder and put the left part up to your mouth and make noise. Do the same for the right side. Which ever part you get results from(you will know this by the sound recorder showing the movement of sound in the display)



There you go. Thats it. Iv tried this with every pair of headphones I own. Iv bought all mine from the dollar store, very very very cheap pair and they work. The same should work for you. Now the next time someone asks if you have a mic and you say no, Think again. You might have to talk a little louder than normal, but at least you have a Mic.

Works great with Skype, MSN or any chat clients. ENJOY!

Note: Might not work for some HeadPhones.
