I was the total opposite. In 1997 we had fast as fuck connections in our high school. I remember betting on sports, ordering crap, and even looking up porn.
At home we had AOL which was also amazing to me back then. Could go into chat rooms, look up sports scores, and so on. Yeah it was slow, but it wasn't a big deal to me at the time.
