Ah, thanks for the education. Very interesting. Are there any good
online sources of historical infomation about CompuServe and their data
center? I should google.....
Try here... http://www.rdrop.com/~jimw/j-boards.shtml

picture of what looks to be a CompuServe Node serial card.
Hmmm...yes, too bad Jim doesn't have the picture behind the thumbnail
online anymore. Would be interesting to see up close. Thanks for the link.

Indeed.
Thanks for the link.
You bet. Please feel free to share any fruits of your research as
well. I used to work at CompuServe, but not directly with the 36-bit

part of the room.
