Yes, it's clearly done by an "artist," not a mainframe operator. That
said, the "art" is pretty well-executed. Maybe the artist can be
hired to do the front-end on a 360 simulator?
Somewhere below that piece is a link to a "Google in the BBS days"
simulation. That one fails on technicality, too, as it continues to
play the modem handshaking sound well after text has begun flowing to
the screen. Still, a fun rendition of a computing experience the
artist has likely only read about.
