First computer was a Timex Sinclair 1000. Then graduated to C-64 when could afford it. Local kmart stores had a layaway plan. Would go in every 2 weeks and make the required down payment. On the last payment, was awarded a new Commodore 64.
(Still have three C64's and Cd drives stashed, Ha!)Modem was a great enhancement then. Was dial up via landline and if able to achieve 300 Baud rate if lucky. Main site was the local university for any info or library.
Unfortunately one day the phone system was struck by lightening....
