Shake off your chains and have some fun with that computer
The idea of having fun on your computer may seem a contradiction in terms. You are chained to it all day at work, it is a nightmare when it acts up, and there is so much to learn about it that any recreational use seems a frivolous waste of time and brings on feelings ?of guilt.

And if that isn't enough, you can draw a sequence of images and convert them into a movie. This is called rotoscoping - it is simple and you guessed it ... fun.
