i remember waiting 3 weeks to have the specially trained tech come and install a 300 baud modem for a "facsimile" machine at work.
I was able to dial-in to the mainframe at the University with a 300 baud modem. When I was a sophomore, I worked with a partical Physicist on one of his projects and he had a 900 baud modem. It was so fast, I almost couldn't read the letters when I scrolled down the page.
we had to keypunch to use the mainframe at rochester back in the day- lived in fear that someone would rearrange your cards as a "joke".
Guilty! But I never had to use cards. The professor I worked for allowed me to use his 900 baud terminal. Sweet.
Cards? Man, you must be old!
