My first network capable machine was one of the old tandy grey ghosts, the original Color Computer I'd put 64k of ram into so I could run a micro unix called os9 level one, with two 720k floppy drives, 20 miles to Clarksburg was still a long distance call, and a 300 baud modem got me to a login in clarksburg that put me on the delphi mail server. Ran my phone bill up about $150 a month.
That machine was followed by a coco3 with 2 megs of pageable ram and a 30 meg hard drive. That machine was joined by a full blown amiga 2000, and eventually a 400mhz k6 running redhat 5.0. No windows machine has survived on this ppty more than a week before its booting linux, windows has been nuked. So I've been spoiled by multiuser, multitasking machines since about 1985.
