is a little disappointing; I'd made the ASCII-art drawing on Emacs, with
the Monospace font. The tower looks much worse with different fonts,
and Monospace isn't very believable as a text terminal font. I prefer
the VGA version -- even if it's not really accurate: to really simulate
a text terminal we should find some font similar to what was used in the
DEC VT100, or the like.

Feel free to make something better, along the same lines or not. I
won't take it personally :-).
