I only vaguely remember PC Pursuit, but I do remember that C 617253
would connect you to the MIT Multics machine :) Or it was called mitmul
on Tymnet. Heck, Tymnet even still had Bell202C (1200bps half duplex)
dialin numbers as late as like 7 years ago! Back in the old CP/M days a
friend of mine modified the MODEM.COM program to work with the 202C
modems, back then they were really cheap, like $25.00 or so, and 212A
compatible modems selling for $500 or more :) Geez, I could go on, but
then I'd really start showing my age :)
