I was dialing up my college's computer at 300 baud back in 1983.

Also was accessing an aviation related BBS about that time.

Ah, I miss my acoustic coupler.

Not.

When I was 12, we had a Commodore with a 300 baud modem. We were flying high!

I do not miss it either.

I was dialing up my college's computer at 300 baud back in 1983.

It was in October of 1983 that I bombarded a phone switch using modem tones in a very small town (500 people) in upstate New York. My phone quit working that evening. It was still dead the next morning. As a matter of fact, so was every other phone in town, including the PBX where I worked. No one could call the phone company to report the outage.

I hope the statute of limitations is up.

I was dialing up my college's computer at 300 baud back in 1983.

I do remember going from 1200 baud to 9600 baud and thinking I had broken the speed barrier. It took so little to please me in those days. :o)
