Microsoft SECRET Easter Egg - windows XP and Vista Movie

[LexLex0987654321]

star wars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ROBLOXBrianester]

OMG this songs on ROBLOX! (Dont laugh its just cause I remember it when i was 8)

[TheDesertDragon]

This isn't an easter egg. This is just something hosted on towel.blinkenlights.nl.

[trus3683]

halo soundtrack is the best fucking game track ever

[uj888n]

Let's see, this works if I open up Terminal.app on my Mac and type

bash> telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl

It also works if I ssh into a Solaris server at my school and use its telnet client.

<sarcasm>This is all very confusing. How did Windows XP and Vista get into Mac OS X and Solaris?</sarcasm>

[WeNjIbOo]

I did this and got it to work and then quickly realised I had wasted 10 mins of my life.

[claudis192]

This is as much of an easter egg as going to internet explorer and typing in a webpage.

[mapel24]

works with windows 7

[adamdmasi]

Do you know what 'easter egg' means? (Sorry, just checking.)

[Tukeppi]

@adamdmasi It means some hidden cool shit, just like easter eggs on easterr...

[adamdmasi]

@Tukeppi That was a statement, not a question. And I know what "easter egg" means anyway.

[logospoof]

20TH Century text!!!

[TheAngryFatMan]

I wish people would quit referring to this as an easter egg. You are creating a telnet session to another computer. It works on any OS that has internet access.

[RaceBandit]

I went to the asciimation site mentioned in the credits page right before the animation... this definitely wasn't an easter egg.

I wouldn't imagine Bill Gates being able to get himself out of the legal mess from putting an ASCII Star Wars in as an easter egg.

[oscarfish48]

It works =D

thanks =D

[wiigowiiwiiincoke]

@evilpacman99 no its not retard.

[PuffOReilly]

[Plxi]

[mxdude443]

it works for windows 7

[mandoh11]

weird

[FischKopfD]

its not an easteregg inside windows because youre connecting to a server through the console...

[somehoboguy]

y not windows seveeeeeeeeeeeeeeenn!

[sunman4321]

tht wierd but cool

[TheDarklord0211]

WTF what dose l337 mean? i nether knew that one

[JeansDaHouse]

1337 is a Word used in games, where the leet( l=1 e=3 e=3 t=7) speak is used, so they write their names for example without any letters but with numbers and so on...

thats 1337

[weasle319]

sweet child o mine doesnt start playing till the end, the song that played for most the vid is of of halo after you kill the sentinals for the first time and open the 1st door lol just got done playing it got all the halos except odst

[0000SHAW0000]

tried on my mac, it worked kinda

[hamstasquad11]

WHY the hell is this on xp and vista???????

[steved0520]

loving the music worked fine for me but not sure wethere its connecting or not il try it offline later

[Clydes555]

haha thanks man it cool !!!

[skatinghorse]

its not a windows easter egg. What youre doing is connecting to someones server on the internet which sends what you see.

[qwerbear123456789]

lol this is awsome haha

[Elfenlied89]

ZOMG I R L337 HAXXOR

[jojosoko84]

hahhahahahhahaha funny

[NathanTheOne]

this isnt on vista or xp all your doing is connecting to a external server

[pilkycheese]

When I clicked on turn windows features on and off I only found telnet server and telnet client.

[killerzac2k8]

same i just clicked both

[zantrua]

turn them both on

[rapid131]

nice halo 3 music

[fredynek3]

but there acctually a micosoft movie on how to use . like a color movie with some asian chick.

[theboymaster]

omg it works!!!!!!!

[CLOOWN666]

its not an easter egg and microsoft havent put this on windows, telnet able you to connect to an internet adress and see what's in

try to turn off your internet and do this again

it'll not work !

[supercarsremix]

haha lol XD!!!! this is just basicly watching a text-slide movie from the internet especially made for promt "Lol gf

[beginnerhacker125]

Someone should make a video to show the entire thing.

[haloKINGSstudios]

omg it works

[musicfrk12]

This is not really very secret. This has been up for some while now. Telnet just connects to other servers through cmd.

And no, there is no second half to the movie. It was never made.

Mac users can watch it too. :] It's not a strict Windows thing only, as long as you can connect to telnet, you can watch it.

[Skitogno]

ahaha funny!

[wctje777]

the run folder is CMD for vista ;)

[mavamaarten]

Telnet is connecting to another PC, so this isn't a hidden video.

[DomelBf2PL]

Lmao this is just connecting to anouther server somewhere in the Netherlands. Epic Fail. How can you call that an easter egg? For me easter egg is something that is weird / funny, and IS INCLUDED in Windows CD / DVD

[David3863154]

there is no sound

[coldsoup101]

there is no sound stupid its dos

[peterbreur]

This is absolutely not an easteregg!!

[graffkaptur]

botnet XD

[youallsuck4000]

how i make my vista look like xp's?

[bobjim2001]

To do this you are connecting to a remote computer. Can you say virus patheway. Just search for star wars ascii in google to find the exact same thing.

[feeblezak]

this is as old as xp

[peepsie112]

i have vista and it worked for me

[peepsie112]

u can just do the client one it worked for me any way

[istoleyourusername]

Yes... a cute little animation but that's not an easter egg. And it's got nothing to do with Windows.

[retroHC]

That's hardly a windows easteregg. Looks like i have the same easteregg in my linux-machines and Macs to then.

[Nomis4000]

And you call that an easteregg?

[Kakage217]

how long is this?

[callumkeeley]

what do you mean by the telnet "command" that is the only bit i dont understand

god im such a noob

[ivanyomomma]

nice halo song

[Zakisandesu]

I watch this video on XP awesome :D a lot of video is about easter eggs... maybe I will do an other video like this.

[nissanboy240sx]

worked for me

[RealBloppy]

I have vista and the only boxes for Telnet that are available at the "widows features" window is "Telnet Client" and "Telnet Server". Is this a common problem?

[peter77772moons]

you need to enable telnet server, sorry for not making this clear in the video.

[RealBloppy]

Gotcha.  Thanks for the help.

[peter77772moons]

No, you need to use the telnet server I think, (I don't have a vista but my friend has one, we did telnet server, if for some reason that doesn't work, use the telnet client.)

[lankajam33]

:( won't let me configure telnet :(

[peter77772moons]

enable telnet server it worked on my friend's vista

[Hacker1677]

haha nice try mate actually you will find that no matter what the star wars vid is not compatible with vista

[peter77772moons]

Uh, I got it to work on a vista computer by following these steps. It was easy

[Lambo3333333]

Yeah, it does work on Vista.

[Dogolife]

lol complete randomness

[Natrix207]

Hey Peter it's David. Nice work on the vid! Go to my Channel and add me as one of your friends! =]
