Star Wars- Whether you are a fanboy or not, no one can miss the fun of watching star Wars! Getting bored @ Office or @ home. Why not watch a Star wars movie? Well whats the fun in that? It is the same movie with aliens fighting each other for galaxies and such stuff. There is nothing new in it. But wait, have you watched an ASCII( American Standard Code for Information Interchange) version of Star Wars and that too in Windows using telnet. A word mostly linked with computer wizards. Well if you have not, then you must do it now!

There is a complete copy of Star Wars done entirely in ASCII characters that you can watch in the Windows operating system (or any OS that supports telnet). The only thing required to watch it is an internet connection; speed does not matter.

2. Now type "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl" without the quotes and press Enter.
   

On Windows 7 and Windows Vista

Telnet is turned off by default in the latest versions of Windows. So, in order to watch star wars, you must first enable telnet by going to Control Panel › Programs › Turn Windows Feature On or Off and ticking both the telnet check boxes. After doing that, follow the steps given below:-

1. Go to Start, Search.
2. Type telnet and press Enter.
3. In the following command prompt window, type "o" without quotes and press Enter.
4. Now type "towel.blinkenlights.nl" without the quotes and press Enter.

Note: In all versions of windows, you can start any service by using the Command net start in Cmd. So, for starting Telnet you can simply write net start telnet and press Enter.

If you do not need telnet anymore, you can turn it off.

Move Recycle Bin to System Tray

Are you tired of minimizing open windows, everytime you have to access the Windows Recycle Bin on the desktop. Here is an application that can help you.

MiniBin is an application, which moves the Recycle Bin sitting on the desktop of Microsoft Windows Operating system to the system tray area, saving you precious few clicks.The program doesn't replace the original Windows Recycle Bin, but simply acts as a backup. It is very handy for  users who hide the desktop Recycle Bin icon or those who often install new themes and wish to remove this particular icon.

While you can easily empty Recycle Bin by right clicking the Tray icon, you can also play a little bit with the settings and automatically launch the program when Windows starts, empty trash with a typical double click, allow confirmation dialogs, show progress dialogs and enable a dedicated option for slow computers to boost performance. This is extremely useful for those with old computers or computers running Windows 7.
