I recently logged into a favourite IRC channel using a 4kb computer from
1984 (MC-10) from my garage using serial and at 1200 baud so you're not
at all mad ;-)

Lol, just keeping the old skills honed hey?

In my case I laid 2" water pipe to the shed a couple of decades ago and
pulled about eight multipair (of 8 pairs?) serial cables through the
pipe, but have done nothing with them since. So it was just a matter of
using what is there.

Oh, I thought we were talking computer dino as opposed to
communications dino.

1200 baud?!

LUXURY! BLEEDIN' LUXURY!

I still have a 300 baud modem somewhere.

With acoustic cups? or wired.
