>And then there is hardware! Anyone want a 300 baud modem? You know, I have to clean house (garage)! :)

300 Baud was kind of fast for those dirty lines we had back then!

You did dBase on a MAC - I did 8 bit dBase II on an Osbourne and a Compupro CCPM OS (the first C means "Concurrent) with a super Z-80.

I had an intership writting basic programs for that little portable HP with the 4 inch screen and a cassete loader!! I even worked with Billy's basic on a TRS-80! It was so easy to dialup and hack private databases back then (of cours, I didn't do that kind of stuff:)

Here is a trick question I got from that era:
What is the distinction between baud rate and bits per second?
