Lemmings

Henry VIII

My Beloved Ones

Ah, the memories of days (weeks) gone bye.

I'm not much of a player, but there are some 6-8 computergames that I really liked. Two of these really had me enslaved. Lemmings was of course one of them. I installed it on my MSDOS computer in the office, and one week later I noticed I had'nt done anything^Hvery much work-related. I did have an impressive list of codes for Lemmings. Sadly the only one solution was to give the darlings the axe: del lemmings\*.*

The other one was Tetris (the original CGA-resloution). I had to give it the axe also after I started seeing coloured blocks tumbling down in my dreams.

re: encrypted laptop

I guess the guy just behaved like a responsible citizen:

If you are lugging around a laptop with sensitive personal information about a lot of people, you encrypt it heavily. You would'nt want the laptop to be stolen, and the information freely accessible on the street, now would you? Of course, when a legitimate request is made by a law-enforcement agency, you comply with them.

Seems like some government people could learn from this attitude.
