I remember when a 14.4 modem seemed blazing fast. It was, compared to the first one I had, I think like 2.8k. I ran a bulletin board on a 2.8.

Yeah 14.4 was a nice step up.

I remember when a 14.4 modem seemed blazing fast ... I used 110 briefly, then 300 for a while. When I got a 1200 baud modem, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I could work from home most days rather than commute into Boston from Tewksbury.
Now, 80 megabits/second seems barely adequate. Fortunately, I'll be moving to a new place later this year with gigabit internet, for $65/month.
