Welcome to the home of MacHAL 9000. The effect is similar to that seen in Independence Day when Jeff Goldblum starts up his Apple Macintosh PowerBook on the way to save the World. Windows users will also find Edgar Hindeminth's Windows port which creates a similar effect on Windows-based computers. The MacHAL 9000 artwork featured on this page and contained in the MacHAL 9000 kit is copyright Nigel C. Eastmond, 1997.
Users are free to download the artwork and use it privately in any way they see fit.
