        awesomeness
        believe me - without free porn, just as many people will seek porn out on the Internet, and many more will pay if there is no free alternative, its not like sex is a fad - it can be milked much like any renewable resource - long term

                                                        Word up brother. Loved waiting for 25 minutes as software loaded from that fucking tape. Only nice thing was that the OS was on rom so it had zero boot time. of course if you wanted a graphical interface you had to wait a fucking hour for Geodesk to load. LOL.

                                                        Also, remember the 300 Baud modem...LOL, you would dial in and watch the screen load character by character. Man, what a monumental waste of time...waiting five minutes for a 200X200 16 color gif of a naked lady!

                                                                              Duke Nukem 3D and NHL 97 were on the most the first year.

                                                                              Loved that machine, had it till 2002.

                                                                                            My school ran a network of these and I ended up inheriting about 5 of them when they were replaced with PCs. My wife made me throw them out a few years ago, wasn't even allowed to sell them on ebay!!!!

                                                                                            First PC based computer was a 286-10 with 1MB RAM and a 40MB Seagate HD. Playa.

                                                                                              Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
