Sounds like the movie "Excalibur".

You are correct, sir.  And while you should have been promoted earlier anyway, this is as good as time as any to promote you to the next access level!

Dude... I don't think it's legal to give away quadroons anymore. Been that way since 1865 in the U.S.

Thanks Frogboy. That really means a lot.

I think Frogboy meant Quatloos, the currency used by the exposed brains in that old Star Trek episode where Kirk, Uhura and Chekov were forced to fight for entertainment.

The movie reference is from Excalibur, the movie; it refers to the Holy Grail, which is being searched for by all the knights to revive Arthur and Camelot, while his Sister, Morgana, tries to destroy the Kingdom via Arthur's illegitimate son. When a "worthy" knight finds the grail and answers the question "whom does it serve" correctly, he gets to take it back to Arthur so Arthur can drink from it. The voice booms out from nowhere; there is no character asssociated with it, as I recall (it has been MANY years since I saw the movie!!)

Do I win?

Not too much to see at this link anyway... just a Power Mac case with an Intel motherboard slapped into it to give the Developers a head start...
