    10:30 - According to the BBC documentary, Beliikov did not have to actually testify. (It's around the 49-minute mark.)

    It was fun to see Howard Lincoln as a character in the movie. I remember he was a character in the old Nintendo Power magazines, in the Howard and Nester" comic strips.

    I keep my 10 year old Nokia exclusively to play Tetris. The current version that you get at Google Play SUCKS!

    It wouldn't make much sense to backdoor a game run on computers that weren't connected to anything. There was no wifi on the gameboy...
