“Actually it looks about the same as dial up. Slow as normal” ....LOL I agree. Have a 9 year old computer and dial up...I haven’t noticed any difference....:o)

Lol!

The old 286 still got some life in her yet, eh?

Years ago, back around 99, I sometimes dialed in with an old Toshiba laptop, running Win98. It was a Pentium running at 75Mhz with 16 meg of core and a 300 meg hard drive, on a 28.8 modem.

Worked.

Didn’t work very dam fast and got really hot, would take like ten minutes to bring up a web page, but it worked!
