Geez, this brings back memories.

At one time at our university we had table desktop dancers installed everywhere. Was kind of funny when it turned up just as a student wanted to defend their work in a lab.

Hey I made some good money from that as a kid. And some of the malware that people ended up with was also fairly visually pleasing to a teenager.
