My first PC had an internal modem card, 2400 baud, I forget the brand but I still have the whole contraption at home.
This was in an NEC Powermate 80286, 10MHz with a whopping 640k ram and 40meg hard drive (largest available at the time) running MS DOS since it was before MS Windows came out. For what I needed to do back then it was speed of light fast compared to "reaction time" of my current SOTA POS.
Btw, is this déjà vu all over again? Somewhere here this question was already explored.
