I'm not usually one to say "OLDDDDD" so I won't phrase it like that, but this is old as hell.

I never had the patience to watch the whole thing.

Cheer up, Baloki. I was impressed when I saw it. Aside from the shots that were too far away for detail, anyway.

Open up the terminal (it's probably called "Terminal", or a sissy Mac version of that). Type 'telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl'. This is assuming that Apple is not so braindead as to have removed telnet from their OS.
