I remember those days. I used to have an exercise bike wired up to my 286 PC XT. Whenever I wanted to upload something quickly, I had to jump on that bike and pedal hard for about 15 minutes.

Younger people have no idea what we had to go through.

But back then, we were thankful just to have an Internet.
