1200 is not too bad on a bbs, I'm often doing that on my c64. 300 is slow! I used 9600 setting up an rs/6000 last week, and it was fast enough that I didn't no

300 is slow!
I used 9600 setting up an rs/6000 last week, and it was fast enough that I didn't notice.
I live in a weird alternate universe.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoNot that weird, I still have a bunch of SPARC Netras with serial ports only (no video) and several HP-UX boxes <3 I love that old stuff, and figuring out how to use their boot managers etc. On the Netras the configuration is actually stored on a smart card. Very cool.
- ipaddr 5y ago300 you have to wait a little for text but 150 was really slow. When I got my 2400 and 9600 things were crazy fast.
- evilbob93 5y agoOne day in the mid 1980s we were checking the speeds available in our VT100 terminals. For fun we dropped it down to 150 to see what that was like. It was so slow that when you hit the delete key, you could watch it backspace, type a space, then backspace again.
