PSA: It's like PopCap, only from twenty years ago

[marnanel]

There is a networking company called Vistech which runs a bunch of public-access OpenVMS servers.

You can play games on them.  These are old VAX games.  They are a lot of fun.  It's like PopCap, only from twenty years ago.

How to do it:

1. Open a terminal.  (Under "Applications" if you're using a Mac.)
2. Type: telnet gein.vistech.net
3. At the Username: prompt type: games
4. At the Password: prompt type: pressplay

Have fun.  Let me know how you get on.

If you replace "gein.vistech.net" with "manson.vistech.net" there are different games, and these are multiplayer.
