I had a Compuserve email account back in the early 1980s. I still have the 5.25 inch install disk. I think it was 1982. I actually bought a pair of jeans on line back then. I quickly dropped that when I got my first bill. At 300 baud everything is SLOW, and they charged by the minute. I tried AOL several times when the stupid free floppy and CD would show up. When I finally got on line with a unlimited 9600 baud modem I thought I had a fast connection. It was Flash.com that I used for years.

I miss dial-up like a toothache.
