Yup. I ran UUCP on a 64K Kaypro with a 1200 baud modem.

1200 baud? It was like science fiction come to life the first time I saw text downloading faster than I could read :D

I was fortunate to have friends who worked for AT&T back then and they were able to get the 1200 baud modem for nothing. It was soooo speedy!
