I remember getting a VT300 something or another and messing with their arcane pixel-level graphics. Even a VAX could make fractals and draw them but it was rather slow, even with a 19.2K link, and it brought the machine to its knees. I had to wait for after-hours. That was a 1980s generation VAX, 750 I think.

And here I am, going for 38.4k on a 45 year old processor on a breadboard - in software. It does not have a UART.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

Very cool. My claim to fame back in college was that I pounded the keys so hard, I actually broke the springs on a VT100 space bar.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
