Wireless networking, 1980s style.

Hours of typing? I can go one better. In NZ when I were a lad, early on a Sunday morning they used to broadcast a program over AM radio. Hit Play+Record when the silence started, put it in the cassette drive once complete and and watch the parity errors shred your dreams enjoy the free software. I had an MSX machine and we only got favoured every couple of months, normally it was Speccys, C64s or BBC.
