Yes,  i  used  to have one. The first were without cases, only the raw
printed  circuit  board  and  they wanted to be connected to the phone
with rubber cuffs like you use for pipes...

I  started with the C64 and VC20 and i programmed in asembler, even my
own operating system ;-)

Previously  i  have  been  online  like  that,  if i was traveling for
business.

I know, but the feeling of sitting in front of the screen, hearing the
modem  sound  and  watching the separate characters appear - you can't
bite that!

You are not much older than me, i guess not more than 10 years.
