Want to type your own Prince Charles? You know you do.

Before the internet people like me typed pictures of people like this because we had loads of time on our hands and who wouldn't want a typed portrait of Prince Charles? Just kidding. We did drugs and shunned the monarchy.

    my first year at College. a place then called Clarkson College of technology. my 1st computer programming class used a Digital PDP-11 mainframe and Teletypes for input terminals. A thoughtful earlier student had left a Type Art file rendition of a Playboy centerfold on the public directory. 1970s geek tech nirvana. I think it was this one, Miss December1968 here titled as miss Morgana. http://www.roysac.com/blog/2009/03/ascii-art-nudes-versus-original-playboy-centerfolds/ ...better than the little Prince,no? Nice thing about teletype paper- no perforations meant the delivered scroll would be nicely intact and suitably durable for dorm wall art.

    Thanks Lars. I'd never heard of "type your own porn".
