I realized after posting that many of our younger posters might not understand this reference. The PC-XT was IBM's inaugural model with a whopping 128k of RAM and a 10 meg hard drive. Released in 1983. 300 baud modem was the way users would connect to a service like AOL or Yahoo, or some other mainframe or minicomputer. The whole point here was that it was dog slow by todays standards, but much faster than a calculator back then.

As a child, we had a TRS-80 which came even before the IBM PC. The monitor was black and white and you didn't even have lower case letters. YOU COULD ONLY TYPE IN UPPER CASE.

That being said, we did have Asteroids and Space Invaders, so life was good.
