Quick Overview
Who remembers when?
I don't remember "when it first came out", but I do remember the dial-up era. I first got online in the year 2000, and I didn't get broadband until 2003.
I have to say, I think dial-up is best left in the past... I don't miss the slow loading speeds or the time restrictions!

I agree definitely
We had WebTv as our first experience with the internet. The dial-up as well as that iconic buzzing noise it made when it dialed!
I remember dialup very well! I was around 13 when I was allowed a PC and internet connection in my bedroom and sitting and waiting for it to connect, that sound and being knocked off if your parents wanted to use the phone, proper nostalgia!
I think I was in my first year at a university where I had used the internet in a computer shop.
