My deaf housemate from MIT during my first year in graduate school got a job at Stanford Research Institute (now just SRI). He used the DARPANET for his work. At the time (1976) there were only 5 mainframes connected. He took home a phone-up teletype terminal so he could work at home, and one weekend he showed us how to play Adventure (one of the first, if not THE first 'online' computer game) on the Carnegie Melon main frame.....Now I feel old.
