Personal Story.

My original plans for New Years Eve was staying home and watching a movie with my fiancée.

Around 6pm a friend called and convinced me to go out to a private New Year’s Party.

It was a very cold evening and my mind was set on hot cocoa and a movie with a nice warm blanket, but I decided to go anyways.

So we arrived to this very nice home, it was a beautiful house and the first thing that I noticed is this very well preserved Apple II computer.

As the “Cool Geek” that I am, I told my friend: “Check This Out”.

He responded like most people would: “Who Cares”.

I forgave his ingnorance not knowing how important part of the computing history this piece was.

Terminal Tetris is actually part of the Gnu Emacs and is something you should able to do on any unix system that has Emacs on it.

I attached text and video instructions.

To start it all you have to do is:

1. Open Terminal

2. type: “emacs” and wait for the emacs screen to load

3. hit “esc” then type “x”

4. type “tetris” (lowercase letters)

5.Enter

A Tetris game will load in the window and you can play it by using the arrow keys & space to control the falling blocks.
