Also, an effect looking like my trusty old Commodore PC10-II:

Screen Shot 2013-03-22 at 22.57.04The (original) machine was fitted with a after-market installed 20 MB hard drive.  Later, I mounted another 20 MB hard drive for an impressive 40 MB total (plus a 360 kB 5 1/4″ floppy drive).  I tried over-clocking the CPU to 5 MHz, but it became unstable, so I had to go down to the factory 4.77 MHz.

This is all made with the terminal emulator Cathode.
