  Netrek is a multiplayer (up to 16 players) network space battle/conquest
  game, with a Star Trek theme.  Players can command one of several ship
  types (Federation/Romulan/Klingon/Orion) and can band up in teams.  The
  object of the game is, basically, to control the Universe, by capturing
  enemy planets, killing the enemy, etc.

  NOTE: This is the "BRMH" client.  It is optimized for speed, and so is
  well suited to you if you have a slowish system.  However, you don't get
  any of the fancy extras, like colors, sound, etc.

  NOTE 2: This client is distributed in binary form, because it is a
  "Blessed" client, meaning that it has been approved by the "Gods of Netrek"
  and has had an RSA key embedded in it.  You can, of course, compile your
  own client if you wish, but keep in mind that, if you do so, your client
  will be "Un-Blessed" and will probably be kicked out of the official
  servers.  This is to prevent some unscrupulous player from hacking his/her
  client to give him/her superhuman powers ("cyborgs", or "borgs").
