In HS we had two ASR-33 teletypes hooked up via acoustic coupler / modem to an HP model 2000E minicomputer. Somewhere along the line we got real high class and got a CRT terminal. That had a 300 baud acoustic coupler / modem, ooooh, fast. In college I had an 8080 system, a totally custom system I designed and built.
