I started accessing BBSs back in the early 70s with a 300 baud modem. dialup! Now at 5 Mbits/sec. here in Ontario. An American friend has 250Mb/s download. Yikes! The classic computer era taught us patience didn?t it? BTW, one had to have a private phone line not a party line for a modem to work. Making our hobby more expensive! On the business-side of computing: Xerox sold 50.1% of its business to Fujifilm, Japan. Xerox Parc was a seminal institution in early classic computing era: Mouse and graphics input for instance. Happy computing! Murray :)
