What was your first modem?
VICmodem on a Commodore 64. The free terminal program was so crappy I wrote my own (at 16). I think I posted it somewhere because about a year later, I got tapped to beta test the Commodore 64 Vidtex client (mixed text and chunky graphics) for CompuServe. I didn't upgrade to 1200 baud until I was in college and working for Software Results. -ethan
