I actually started with a 300baud modem..and a cassette tape drive...just before the floppy (5-1/4) arrived for my system. Do you remember those amber hercules monitors ??? 2 colors...black and amber...text only...oh--amber text.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together.
All things connect......Chief Seattle, 1854
