Word up brother. Loved waiting for 25 minutes as software loaded from that fucking tape. Only nice thing was that the OS was on rom so it had zero boot time. of course if you wanted a graphical interface you had to wait a fucking hour for Geodesk to load. LOL.

Also, remember the 300 Baud modem...LOL, you would dial in and watch the screen load character by character. Man, what a monumental waste of time...waiting five minutes for a 200X200 16 color gif of a naked lady!
