this could almost be on topic, 
i went along to an exhibit at the barbican this afternoon, top thing,
they have an exhibit on video games.  more info here:

i say its alomst on topic, as they had some MAME machines their, dont
know if they were running on linux, but they might have been.

well myself and a mate managed to spend 6 hours playing vintage games,
they've got original 'space invaders' and 'asteroids' tempest was pretty
damn cool aswell.

it was a total blast from the past, seeing old consoles, and amiga's and
the like.  the exhibit is on for ages, and if you can stomach the 11
quid to get in, its well worth it.

they're also going to be having a geeky film season aswell, any one up
for seeing Tron on the big screen again?
