Oh yeah, brings back many memories.......Byte magazine,
73 magazine.........downloading computer programs from
cassettes on my Sinclar, TRS-80, and "remember" the
old telephone modem with the handset in the modem
cradle and you always shushed anyone coming in the
room to not make noise while you were on the BBS.

Old Wayne was a visionary, and sure needed a business
manager. With that he would have been much more
successful.

Thanks, Dar.
