When I started with my first computer I had a 90 baud acoustical coupler modem. Then I went to 300 baud with was what I considered fast, then 1200, then 9600. Finally when I got yo 56 K I thought it was light speed.
Now any dial up to me is painfully slow.
Yes, I still remember downloading a mp3 song with a 56k modem! Damn, that took ages! Now I got a fast connection with a download spreed of 1.2 mb/s, so downloading a mp3 cost a couple of seconds!

We still have dial-up in Hungary.
I miss that place dearly, but sure as heck not the connection
Really? So you blog with a 56k connection?
I’ve never been to Hungary, maybe someday I’ll!
