Okay...I normally try to point out some cool things once and awhile and for my fellow geeky nostalgia types out there you must go here
http://infocom.elsewhere.org/
All the old Infocom text based RPG games available for playing online. All games are playable and savable through a Telnet client that has been set up for that express purpose. The site also has all the old doumentation and manuals preserved for posterity.
To play:
telnet://eldorado.elsewhere.org/ is the telnet address
login:zork
Password: (hit return/enter)
You can get terribly addicted to these...trust me I spent a great deal of time during my youger years working on these (getting my start with "The Witness" back in 5th grade)
