Does anyone still have dial-up?

Dial-up used to drive me crazy! Especially when I was online downloading or printing out something, and then someone would pick up the phone to make a call.

It's that stuff girls used to spray on their hair in the '60s to hold its style.

this video is pathetic and hilarious.

Dial up was soooo annoying, and was the inteernet only a chat room, back then?

I only got Broadband in the last three months, until then i had dial up. Before then, my was not 'in the broadband area', in otherwords the phone company didn't want to have to run lines out to the outer suburbs. Ireland is so behind the times.
The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

With everything else in it, it would still be funny without the dail-up.

And thanks for posting, robbo, I loved this.

Wow! Thank you, Al Gore, for inventing Internet. re: What is this 'internet' i've been hearing about? (I am kidding)


And when did we start using the definite article, 'the' in relation to 'the' Internet?

Oh, and a friend of mine still has dial-up. I laugh at her.

I still have Dial-Up at my mother's, but that's only because we can't afford DSL. My dad has great DSL though and I'm there more often than here, so if I need to download stuff I just wait until I'm over there.
