I was going over the good old days with my daughter when she touched the Internet issue: How old was the Internet and what was there before?
I tried to explain to her that before broadband and DSL were around, there was something called modems. Wow was that hard for her to grasp.
"You had to use the telephone line?!"
And that was an easy questions!! Then I told her that prior to the Internet we had what was called BBSs and her daddy was part of that world, I was a sysop!
Boy did that brought back memories! I purchased a shareware software called QuickBBS, i configured it attached it to my modem and became the next biggest thing since God. I was powerfull then, at least in my head!
Take care
