Moonlight Lady 07-15-2005, 01:32 PM 1995 -- Dial up and then we got Roadrunner in 2001 Number 9 Dream 07-15-2005, 01:34 PM Ick, 1998 and it was dial-up Brad Russ 07-15-2005, 02:00 PM Iv'e had a dial up connection since August 5, 2001, so it's been almost four years for me. I think it's about time I upgrade to a cable modem though. MaydayMalonesGirl 07-15-2005, 02:14 PM I'm not sure. I know we started with AOL 4.0 dial up... maybe in 1999? It was probably around there, but it might have been earlier. PZelda 07-15-2005, 02:49 PM I've got you all beat. :lol: We had dialup way back in 1991, when we got our first computer. :eek: It was Prodigy, and my brother was on Prodigy allllll the time. We had a dialup connection at home until...Wow, I don't know. 1994/95, maybe? We had no internet for a while when we moved...then we got the internet again in 1996 and it's been that way ever since. My dad jumped on the broadband bandwagon in early 2001 and I finally went broadband in late 2003.

I didn;t discover it until 96 I think the late 60s, for the government. It didnt go public until the early 90s though. Mr. Television 07-15-2005, 03:09 PM I've had it since early 2000 not long before I discovered SO.

I'm gonna guess 1998. I don't really remember. We got DSL for awhile, but then moved to where it wasn't (and still isn't pissed: ) available. Sean Snow 07-15-2005, 04:24 PM Some point in late 1998. We still have dial-up. Fleet 07-15-2005, 05:17 PM I think the late 60s, for the government. It didnt go public until the early 90s though.

Penny Lane 07-15-2005, 08:27 PM I got my first computer and internet service in Fall 1999. I knew squat about computers! But I had a lot of help from my friends. :D Remember the infamous Y2K thing on New Years Day 2000? Well, I was worried sick about all the computers failing until a computer expert that I know said that it was all hype and not too worry! :lol: Sure enough we entered the new century just fine! :happyface Penny Lane 07-15-2005, 08:31 PM I started with Juno. Then ATT. Then Earthlink. Now I am with Peoplepc. I like it.
