If you got the Minimoog via Facebook, it installed an app called Sweepstakes which gathers your personal information. You can turn off this app in Facebook privacy settings.

How about punched cards. Ever prepared a 1000 card deck and then tripped just before applying the rubber band?

Modem? Pfff, these young fellows......

This is how I started:

300 baud (bits per second)

well, OK, to be honest short time before my parents got this in the house, replacing the black one:

OK, can't remember now so I'm going to have to ask - was there an option to download 32bit or 64bit? Moving over to 64bit soon but installed this as 32bit.

Anyone know?

AFAIR there was such an option in the installer.

That may be why I can't remember correctly. Oh well, I'll try it and see if it works when I go 64 bit.
