Default Internet Connection

Since what year have you guys had Internet connection at home?

I've had internet since 1996! But I remember my cousin had it WAY before that! But he used to call it "via-telephone" connection! LOL

(It was only text)

I've been connected since the summer of 2001. Heck, I didn't even have a computer until 1999! I know, we're very slow over here.

We first got AOL in 1996 but my dad didn't like it so then we didn't have the Internet for awhile then we got a crappy dial up connection in 1997 and when we moved into my new house in 2001 we got a cable modem.
