Well, mind you, I checked it out on my lame office PC, but still I expected more - lame as it might be it's not totally worthless...

I've now tried it on three different PCs and it doesn't work on any of them. The grey progress bar slides (pretty quickly) up to 100%, but an ASCII picture never appears.

it looked much better when it was moving and the numbers/letters were changing.... if you "blur" your vision you can see what it's meant to look like
