i'm 99% sure that computer still works and is in my parents basement somewhere.
Sometimes I wonder why anyone even bothered putting up with something that slow. We must have been very patient web surfers. |
I'm only 30 and you make ME feel old. I remember waiting several minutes or even a half hour for each porno picture to download over our 9600bps modem, from the local shady BBS!
