I never had any of the "boxes," but I read about Captain Crunch when I was in college in the early 70s. He could whistle the codes after dialing an 800 number to cut off the other end of the call without dropping the toll free line.
I have a whole set of Phrak magazines printed out in my files. I also have 2600 over many years. I have all the old subversive texts in my files, such as "The Anarchist Cookbook." I know better than to try any of their "recipes." I took organic chemistry in college, and they look sketchy to me.
Good times. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. I still have a few copies of Alt2600. Loved the days of eLiTe and warez. The anarchist cookbook, have a copy as well, some of the stuff did seem sketchy.

I also have old computer magazines. I had a Radio Shack Color Computer, so I have "Rainbow Magazine" and "Hot CoCo," as well as others.
