My first modem was 1200... In the early 90's, I got a 9600 baud modem, which is where it felt like things were really taking off. A whole page of text in less than a couple of seconds! I ran my own BBS on 9600 for years.

Going from a 1200 to a 9600 blew my mind- text faster than I could ever hope to read! The future had arrived.

The experience of watching local LLMs produce text has a similar vibe to those old modem links. Everything old is new again.
