It's a reference to the film masterpiece Back to the Future. If you  
find a reason to have 88 simultaneous colors on your terminal, your  
entire computer is whisked back in time to the late 70's. The result  
will be some music, then the creation of the VT100/ANSI X3.4  
standards will be prevented and we'll have to start all over. Let's  
avoid this.
