Hell, I remember beta testing EverCrack and having to leave the dld up all day at work just to play the next nite and it might have not been finished then.

God, I do sound ancient these days 🙂
 
remember playing command and conquer, and Generals eventually, over dial up......as in, you dial up another pots modem with your modem?

this guy must be getting static on his dialup
 
Haha that's great.

I remember when we went from dialup to ADSL 1mbps service. It was incredible. Then ADSL got kinda meh and the upload was especially a big bottleneck when doing offsite backups and even doing backups of my online server to my home server was bloody slow. 8/1 at that point. Then last summer we got FTTH 50/30. Literally like 1000 times faster than dialup.

Funny thing is we still use lot of 1200 baud connections at work for certain pieces of equipment. You can type faster than the characters can be sent to the end point.

BoomerD is locked and loaded...and ready for battle. :colbert:
 
It's missing the stuttery mouse pointer, the cooling fan ramp-up, the unresponsiveness of other tasks, and ultimately, that "This script has stopped responding" error notice.

Leaving your computer on all night to download MP3's, those were not the good ol days.

Haha I remember downloading a big program (at the time, basically 650MB or so) with Kazaa (or it was maybe Morpheus at the time, I forget). Since I could not tie up the phone line for that long as parents wanted to use the phone and stuff, every time I did go online I'd unpause it, then pause it back. Took like a month. Was surprised when it was not corrupted. I also had it setup to automatically dial up at certain intervals at night to resume. Unlimited dialup was also a big luxery most people could not afford, so I had to be careful how long I was on.

I sure don't miss those days lol.
 
Shut up grasshoppers. I was downloading floppies from bbs at a top speed of 192cps. That's characters per second.

Played EQ on dial up for a couple years
 
i remember waiting like 10 minutes for a tit shot of jenny mccarthy (and many other celebs) to load just like that back on AOL trial disks.
