I know, I was there.
But even still, it's hard to imagine a world without internet and computers.

I miss those AOL disks they used to mail daily with 250 free hours.
I was ten when I got my first (used) computer 486 DX2 😏.
Got online the year after in 1995 for the first time (as far as I can remember). mIRC was a favourite app to use with "ASL" as ice breaker to find equals and interesting people "out there".
Man the dx2 had a coprocessor I had a 486 sx 33mhz...yours had to be 66 or 75 lol
It was a 66Mhz. I later got a 100Mhz (within a year or two) 🤓
Yeah I remember BBS back in that day builliten boards that you had to dial into...300-900bps in those days even.
you've got me beat, i don't remember using anything lower than a 1200 :)
i ran a one line BBS in my parents' basement, called The Wyvern's Lair
I was co sysop at 12 with 1440 minutes a day. Played a lot of Legend of the red dragon and drug wars. I remember when ANSI took off it was the real graphics.
My first real internet experience and what I felt was liberty, was MSN and hotmail. My mum was always up to date with all the internet stuff and by that stage I had my own cellphone. I remember dial up sounds and ASL 😂I will tell my grandkids that 🤣
