The first time was the two AI that started talking to each other in a language developed by the AI, they ended up pulling the plug because there was was no way to see what was being conversed.

Submission + - Lotus 1-2-3 ported to Linux (techradar.com)

drewsup writes: As reported by The Register, a Lotus 1-2-3 enthusiast called Tavis Ormandy (who is also a bug-hunter for Google Project Zero), managed to successfully port the program onto Linux, which seems to be quite the feat of reverse engineering.

Itâ(TM)s important to stress that this isnâ(TM)t an emulated program, but rather the original 1990 Lotus 1-2-- for x86 Unix running natively on modern x86 Linux.
Ormandy also developed an entirely new display driver for the program, which can now be run on more than just the 80x25 window.
