Spooling up drives, dampners on-line, little-flashing light flashing, music turned up, bass pumping, shields down, neon underglow on, annoying empath and pesky know-all kid in airlock, robot seeking humanity in trash, and the bar is fully stocked sir.

I remember spending days searching the elite binary looking for the table of planets ( so I could find the optimal pair to trade ) and getting terribly frustrated before working out that they were algorithmically generated and there was no table.
