Mere minutes, I tell you!

@sjvn Huge upgrade from 100 Baud accoustic couplers .

@Lucky188 @sjvn Now now. 110 baud.

@sfleetucker @Lucky188 @sjvn Wow! I recall 300 baud. RS232 is still around. Anybody remember smoke signals?

@BFBucky1 @Lucky188 @sjvn

My first teletype was a 110 baud acoustically coupled terminal to an HP/2000. The sound was "cachunk-cachunk-cachunk" as the print head slowly moved across the paper, followed by a loud thunk as the printhead returned to the start of the next line.

I remember when we upgraded to a 300-baud dot matrix printer/terminal, and the sound became "buzz-return-buzz-return"

@sfleetucker @Lucky188 @sjvn And sheet fold paper and punch cards!
