Thanks for the effort! I was a regular reader of BYTE magazine (and Nibble!) but never knew Creative Computing.

There was also a TV series with a similar theme (war dialling) at that time. I can't recall its name...



I was a regular reader of BYTE magazine and Creative Computing. Nibble, not so much since I did not have Apple II class PCs. I believe that the TV series you refer to was Whiz_Kids: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiz_Kids_%28TV_series%29


Whiz Kids it was indeed. Too bad it's not available for watching online. Thanks for taking the time to answer!
