Yes smile emoticon Not until I got a 2400 bps modem but until
  then, I had a 300 baud half duplex modem I used to connect to
  other BBS' and to PC-Link, the online service that later became
  AOL. My first modem. I even hooked my Tandy Color Computer 2 to
  it but at 32 characters wide, BBS' looked
  odd.[1]hw-modem-dcm6(1393) What amazed me is when I went up to
  56k baud, it seemed SO FAST for such a short amount of time.
  High speeds at work and dialup at home soon made me frustrated.

  Now that I'm at 10M Baud down, 768k baud upload on DSL, it's
  much better.

  Still it'd be nice to have some of the even higher speeds, but
  at the cheap price I pay for this, it's ok for now.
