Oh those heady early days of BBS and 2400 baud modems. My coolest memory is sitting with my brother who had an Amiga 1000 (best system ever made) while he was online talking to Michael Crichton.
Something elegant about the simplicity of a text-based online service.

We look back and laugh but wasn't it exciting back then to think about connecting your pc to another either with BBS's or some form of internet connection?
My first real pc was a 386sx and I had a 2400 baud modem.
I thought connecting to freenets were so cool.
BBS's were awesome as was national videotext and compuserve.
