That was my first online experience too, once when my uncle visited and brought a teletype terminal with a modem coupler. It was utterly addictive, and if it hadn’t been a long-distance call, I wouldn’t have done anything else for his entire visit.

That wouldn’t happen to have been a TI Silent 700? These were very popular portable terminal devices in the 70’s and 80’s.

It could have been! I was probably 13 or so, so it was a very long time ago. It was also able to print posters of pictures (I had one of the moon landing on my wall for years) that you assembled by taping together the strips of 8x11 fanfold paper. The images on this site are similar, but not exactly the same one.
