                                            Remember how much RAM used to cost back in the day!?!

                                            I think I paid $100's for an 8mb RAM upgrad in the mid 90's.

                                                young pups - i remember 10 and 12 bucks a gig, and over 5 grand a month for a T1 line.

                                                i remember Autson being one of the first low cost hosts at $2 a gig. i tried them out.
                                                I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!

                                                  but sign ups were so easy to get back in the day. throw up a shitty link to some cookie cutter site and you convert 1:100. ahh the good old days

                                                                                  I think I paid $100's for an 8mb RAM upgrad in the mid 90's.
                                                                                  I remember paying about $80 for each MB of ram back in the day.
