On the tiny little nine inch trinitron colour screen is a wordprocessor with a document opened called 'untitled' and the text 'On writing without distractions.' typed on the first line of the document. There is a beige floppy disk in the drive.

The image is of a comic. Panel one depicts Santa Claus. He says, "Have you been naughty or nice?" Panel two depicts a happy dog. He says, "I am ALWAYS a good boy." Santa responds "Very nice!" Panel three depicts Santa again. He says "...And you?" Panel four depicts an orange cat climbing a Christmas tree, turning his head to look back at Santa.
