securitybreach 11,644 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 At one point, I somehow managed to sign into Compuserv via Singapore and my mom had to talk her way out of a $3k phone bill. Needless to say, I could barely walk for a week. This was with a Tandy 1000 back in the 1980s. Link to post Share on other sites

I wrote a complete accounting system for a Men's and Ladies boutique in 1985 on an 8bit Z80 machine. Before the IBM XT became popular. Switched to a 286 clone with dual 20mb drives when they first came out. Did a sector by sector backup from one drive to the other every morning. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
