Digital Archaeology: Codex (Floppy Disk) #9 (part 2)

A summary for those that haven't been keeping up with this series:

I found a number of 5.25" disks at a thrift store several years ago. I finally got around to acquiring a 5.25" disk drive and extracting the contents a while back. Since then I have been posting the contents here.

Based on the contents, at least some of these disks were apparently once owned by someone named Connie A. Buys who used to run the “Close Encounters” Special Interest Group (SIG) on Delphi in the mid 1980s.

A specific definition of this SIG was found in a document on one of the disks: “This SIG, known as 'Close Encounters', is a forum for the discussion of relationships that develop via computer services like the Source, CompuServe, and Delphi. Our primary emphasis is on the sexual aspects of those relationships.”

This service was text based and was accessed via whatever terminal program you used to dial in to Delphi’s servers from your computer. Many of these disks have forum messages, e-mails and chat session logs. All of this is pre-internet stuff and I don’t know if there are any archives in existence today of what was on Delphi in the 1980s. In any case, much of this stuff would have been private at the time and probably wouldn't exist in such archives even if they existed.

This post includes the contents of DM1106.DOC and includes stuff from late October 1985. There's quite a bit here. This is basically a dump of an e-mail session with the first e-mail containing a chat log. My favorite parts are the ad for the press release for the Tandy 600 laptop and the end where you see the disconnect and reconnect :).

NEW TANDY 600 LAPTOP COMPUTER OFFERS
FEATURES PORTABLE COMPUTER USERS WANT

The Tandy 600 laptop computer will be introduced on Monday, October 28, at
approximately 1100 Radio Shack Computer Centers, Plus Computer Centers and
participating dealers and franchisees nationwide. The newest laptop from Tandy
is an upward extension of the popular Tandy 100/200 laptop computer family.
"Laptop users asked for more contiguous memory, an 80-column display, built-in
disk storage, and enhanced word processing, spreadsheet and telecommunications
facilities. When we brought out the Tandy 200, the cost of the technology
needed to offer those features was simply too high. Now, the costs and
technology have reached the point where we're able to offer greatly enhanced
features while maintaining the basic characteristics that made the Tandy 100 and

200 portable computers the laptop industry leaders," explained Bernard Appel,
President of Radio Shack.
The Tandy 600 laptop computer uses the 16-bit 80C88 microprocessor, and comes
with 32K RAM storage. The memory is expandable to 224K, in one contiguous memory

bank. The built-in 3.5" floppy disk drive has a capacity of 360K, and the
adjustable, flip-up 80 character x 16 line LCD display has a matte finish to
reduce glare.
The Tandy 600 portable computer features Microsoft Works, five very powerful,
full-featured built-in applications, which are written to use key words
displayed at the botton of each screen. Application programs built into ROM on
the Tandy 600 include file management, database, word processing, spreadsheet,
calendar and telecommunications software. Built-in nicad batteries, which last
approximately 11 hours between charges, are easily recharged with an AC
adapter, which is included with the Tandy 600 laptop computer.
Suggested retail price for the Tandy 600 portable computer (26-3901) is
$1,599.00

Tandy is a registered trademark of Tandy Corporation. Radio Shack is a
registered service mark of Tandy Corporation. Microsoft Works is a trademark of
Microsoft Corporation.

My DELICOUS [and soon to be consumed] Darling Connie,

I went and watched the first 10-15 Min. of 'Sex-Waves' and I don't think
YOU [assuming you got a chance to see it all] would like it very much but
I don't think you will get much of a chance to get critical about it!!

The Video Tape has a 10 min. PREVIEW of another video at the beginning
so by the time you get through that [skin flick] you are for a better effort tha
t sex waves provides.

The film/Video is erotic and I would like to see more of it although I may
never see the entire movie at one time! 
I am anxious to see how this video effects you!!!!!

See you in a few hours!!!!!

I LOVE YOU !!!!

               LOVE

YOU!!!!!!!

Name: THAT SUDDEN FEELING
Type: TEXT
Date: 28-JUL-1985 20:03 by JOHNMYSELF

Getting close on-line by Cabuys, Maven, John

Recently a friend and I were talking on-line here about compusex,
but mostly our discussion centered around the question of how it
can affect people. His original thinking was that words on a
screen can generate feeling but, after all, they are only words
on a screen. He could not understand how two people could feel so
very close with this medium as the only form of communication.
We talked late into the night. We avoided, for some reason,
getting invovled in compusex itself and talked of feelings, trying
to understand the hows and whys of it all. Many times I answered
his question of "how" with "I don't know! it just happens!"
As our discussion continued, we realized suddenly that at that
particular moment, we felt so close, so very special to each other.
 He, not expecting this, struggled trying to understand
how he felt. I, having slightly more "experience" at this than he,
knew what was happening but could do little to help. The sad part
is that once we realized how we felt, that closeness was gone.
We met once again a few days later in an effort to recapture that
special moment. Unfortunately, it didn't happen and may never
happen again for the two of us. This time I managed, unintentionally,
to shatter his "fantasy image" of me. I feel a certain sense of loss
or regret or perhaps rejection because things didn't work out.

All this is leading to my question: Why does this special feeling *
of closeness or oneness happen so frequently on-line but seldom *
happens in "the real world"? *
Or does it actually happen in "the real world" and I am just one *
who has missed such an experience? Am I the only one who feels this *
way? *

To those who have hope and wait come all good things in time !

Darling, I live to make more complete your life and we really do have this
and it IS the "Real World" !!
Love,

Rod
