Been there, done that, got the T-shirt (and VHS video :-)

Yes, I connected to a Gameline server sometime in '98 (I think it was) and 
used it to play games.  I have a VHS tape of me going through the menu and 
connecting and all that fun stuff.  Someone e-mailed me out of the blue 
saying he had this Gameline server up, and that I should give it a try... 
which I did.  He has since taken it down from what I hear.  He had it 
hooked up so the whole town could call in for free and play during the 
mid-late 80's and early 90's.
