Warez sites. 4mb at a time per 4 hour sitting. Weeks to download anything. Then half the time something was corrupted anyway.

When you had to order car parts through magazine ads... Pre internet days were the best.

Or ask the guy at the speed shop to get it in for you.

And speculation on the next great thing was three lines in a magazine comment section and responses took 2 months.

Oh... And you actually had to learn how things worked and get a book to read yourself instead of just asking.

You would run the pkzipfix utility to try to fix your corrupted zip file (never worked) then hop back on netscape navigator and piss your parents off some more while you hogged the phone line downloading "BigRedRacing_USDemo.z07" again.

The first time I got broadband I didn't even know what to do with myself
