Incredible. I remember in the 90’s having a 56Kbps modem and needing to download a MS Windows update that was 65MB. It took about 24 hrs....after failing 12hrs in on the first attempt.

Now I can pull down GB’s in minutes. My first Hard Disk was 40MB, which is now just a single phone app - which downloads and installs in seconds.

Yeah...me too. How happy were you when you got your first 19.2 modem? I was a happy dude.
