That's old school brother! I wish I still had my ti99-4a with a cassette drive. Didn't get on BBS's until I got a 2400 baud modem for my PC Jr though.

But yes, compuserve was the bomb back in the day until AOL came along and crushed them.

Yeah, I tried to throw my golf clubs in the frunk the other day but there was barely room for a six pack cooler.

Yeah, like KC said what happened to the frunk? I read one original Porsche guy said there should always be room for a set of golf clubs. While I don't play golf anymore, I was confused and went to look at my C4S. My frunk is full and there is nothing in it! I guess I could put a small set of clubs on the passenger side with the seat back all the way back...then detail the interior when I get home!

Time to switch to tennis. Racquet bags fit perfectly and you can play in the winter (if you have winters where you live.)

I believe it's more like $22k all-in.

I have to test this, I thought the frunk was too small for the racquet bag...

Is there something specific in this thread that you are referring to? If not, do you live in Colorado?

I started with an Atari 800XL with a 300 baud modem.

But since everything was text back then it really didn't bother me too much. I could probably type faster than the speed of the incoming data though.

Started with a Vic-20 and my first connected computer was a TRS-80 with a 300b modem.

Type faster than it? ****, I used to be able to whistle the connection sequence up to 2400 baud. That talent actually turned out to be handy during my tech support days when the old people hit the connect button right after you told them not to do it

That's almost as bad as trying to sell a 928 as a 996.
Look for the thread from a Canadian dude that grafted a Cayenne front bumper on his 928.
