Oh yeah, tough guy? I wrote telex over an unstable 75 baud uhf-SATCOM link running on a fleetsat from the 70’s. Pretty crappy and I didn’t like it, since I had to usually send it several times ;-)
I wrote my first code at the end of a 300baud accoustic coupled modem. I don’t know if the “not really” was modifying the “liked it that way” or the entire post.
I once managed to borrow a 300 bps modem for my Commodore 64, and showed some of the local online services to my friend who owned the modem. (It was actually super fancy because I managed to use a terminal program that showed 80 mildly blurry characters per line.) By that time our family had a PC with a 2400 bps modem.
9600? Luxury.
I started with 300 baud, where you could read faster than the letters would show up. And we liked it that way! (not really lol)

I’ve never even used a computer.

Wait, sorry, forgot if we were discussing or swinging it around.
