I got to experience the old VAX-based system for a few years, before it was migrated to Oracle Peoplesoft in 2011 (?) - which created as many problems as it solved. Interestingly, I'd never heard of the telnet interface to course registration before today. I did hear about the modem bank - and being the one with the old laptop (2006 vintage), got to use the modem with the campus's 5-digit dialing to get a session on it. This was, by far, more performant than trying to use the Web interface that everybody else was hitting, but interestingly it also didn't have the silly "we're closed from 6pm to 6am" stipulation.
