    damn, i occasionally use 56k when i am stuck out on my families ranch, and i can't believe just how fucking slow it really was. i can't even check my email without wanting to fire the keyboard right through my monitor. i remember back in the day when i would set 20 songs to download, and leave my computer conected ALL NIGHT, just so i could burn a cd the next morning. and i thought GFY was slow now...

          I had to use it 2 months ago (for 3 days) when my cable fucked up...I thought, it wouldn't be that bad, but it was a nightmare.

                      An hour to download a 5 MB file. I don't miss it... (I think that was a 1200 baud modem, might have been 2400)

                        56k was a luxury, started on a 14.4k modem before getting to upgrade to 28.8 when the option was available.

                                                              it is a nightmare. My worst memory of the experience is the "CLICK" sound of your modem losing connection

                                                              I remember aol warez
                                                              I remember getting pinged/icmp and diconnected whenever you pissed someone off
                                                              i remember using netzero when it was free and ad based
                                                              I remember when sending ATH0++ disconnected your modem (typing it something in a post or in a chatroom would disconnect everyone)
                                                              i remember watching images load pixel by pixel, line by line

                                                              bad memories

                                                              have been on 12mb for a few years now

We let the computer sit there and download those 20 pictures, took the whole afternoon. Once loaded, we opened up every picture and added it to Favorites.

                                                                                Couple of us gathered around the computer, found a site dedicated to Pamela Anderson with probably 20 pictures. We let the computer sit there and download those 20 pictures, took the whole afternoon. Once loaded, we opened up every picture and added it to Favorites.

                                                                                This was on a P1 133mhz mind you, cutting edge!
