You'd have to be an old guy to know what a mini computer actually was - LMAO. I was young and dumb and didn't know enough to be afraid of working with super expensive stuff. Shocked a lot of people that I was able to get it to work AND get it to do what they wanted to do with it.
Remember how much a long distance call cost back then? Or what a 56K baud rate was? And how nice it was if the phone line could keep that baud rate from dropping to 8K or 4K baud? Cheez ... the memories this thread brings to light.
