You guys, I actually worked at a job where we had a a CompuServ account (oh, and a modem whose speed was measured in bytes — not even kilobytes, just … bytes). Well, I say “we” — the modem was connected to my computer, and I basically hogged all of it: the BBSes, music news and trivia quizzes — oh, and one of our phone lines.
Ahhhh, memories. Kids these days will never know that sound.
