We had KSR 33 as I/O.
That was mine too. And wow, at 110 baud. So fast, so noisy, so
heavy, so greasy.
Next one was a TI, but I have no recollection of model.
Bigger leap was a 300 baud acoustic modem. Still got one of those
hanging around here somewhere.
Brian Lawson,
Bothwell, Ontario.
I maintained an online banking center in downtown San Francisco. We had 110
baud lease lines from the Canadian border in Washington and from Salt lake
city. Did not take a high speed scope to check those lines. We were blown
away when NCR demo a 1200 baud modem at the 1966 Fall joint Computer
Conference in the city.
That was still a lot better than a 60 mA loop KSR33 on a news wire.
