- jamiek88 6y agoHey I did the same but added SOUND RND (1000,1,-1) or whatever it was to an entire bank of econet computers. We were in the class next door that had one computer and we could hear it go off. Hilarious hijinks until caught/blabbed on. Serious business afterwards. Teachers are scared shitless of computers even now and ‘hacking’ back then... well, I was waiting for MI6 to come get me.
