And that is Minitel!

Now, I remember it! But it was called US Videotel. It was really just in Houston and Dallas, Texas.
Around 1988 to the end some time in 1992 or 1993.
This was the precursor such as it was to the internet today.

I remember not only the people on this system, but the ways we found to move off the system and onto another system that gave us access to people around the country in colleges!
And they did they same.
Even came with an optional printer.
Ah, the good old days!
Hahahahhahahaa....
