I played Zork via the Arpanet in 1978. (Yes, I'm "experienced"). A friend showed me how to reach the net via a local phone call, even though we were in a school computer lab Washington, DC and were accessing a machine at MIT. We had a 300 baud modem and a DECwriter terminal; we wasted a lot of paper playing the game.
