I got internet in 2009 XD

I've been on since near the beginning  (early 80's)

:grin:

I don't know when my parents got internet but I was already a teenager when I was allowed to use it (dial-up). I remember my mother talking to people online with a messenger program called ICQ.

Those were the good olden days, weren't they? :tellmemore:

Also, this guy



Oh, my god! Oh, my god! That's him!? He did that!? I had no idea! That's great! ;D

I can finally put a face to that voice...I can now die in peace.  :levitate: ~Thank you, Davin:grin:

I remember having to wait more than 30 minutes for a 15 second video to download. I remember using my slow internet only late at night so that I wouldn't miss any phone calls during the day.  ::)

I remember all that, plus being limited to only an hour of internet time a day because of the telephone bills.  >:(

Remember those Free Trial AOL disks we used to get in the mail?  :lol:

Oh yeah.  ::)

Here it was mostly Uol and Terra, but in essence it's all the same.



Every now and then we would get some crappy games and I would install them all. :grin:

Those were the days. :grin: Not a worry in the world.

And the machines we were using then; a dedicated desk/trolley supporting a huge tower; pull-out shelf for keyboard and mouse all topped by a monitor. And the spaghetti of cables. Now an iPad and sometimes a mini (wireless) keyboard.

^^Those lasted a while, I remember getting free floppy disks in the mail all the time.



They stopped using ones where you could just switch off the write protection, but we bypassed that with a razor knife and some tape.

And to tie in that to the thread, here is some floppy drive music:
