Re: Yep!
said by Corehhi  :In 97 I think I could download at abot 3.9 KB's a second with my state of the art 56K modem. And sadly around here that's all most people know because we have the world's cheapest cable company and no live RTs to provide DSL. I'm the last one this far north up the road to have DSL.

I had a download rate of about 4.2KBps on average on my US Robotics 56k v.92 external modem back in the day.
Still have it.

said by TigerNutz :yeah? I'm sure the same thing was said about a 10mb file in 1997...... In 97', I was still on dialup, and 10MB was not a big deal. |

Actually no. Most dialup services can grab that size of a file in less than an hour (give or take). Now a 100+MB file size however... |
