I think it was circa late-80s. He died in 1992, and I used it once or twice, but didn't get another modem until I went to grad school in 1994, whereupon my computer came with a blazing-fast comparatively 28K. But the grad student housing I lived in was wired for Ethernet during my first semester, so I didn't use it a whole lot. :)
I'm going to have to send in my computer for repairs. Can you imagine my dismay when I found out I actually have to SEND IT IN to do this? Like through the mail!
You think you got withdrawal? With my move to my new flat on October 24th I didn't get my internet back until December 28th! With only browsing from the school pcs now and again keeping me alive and able to tell people I wasn't dead yet :P
Damn, those storms must have done all their damage up north. =/ I was in South Texas last night, and all we got were some very scary looking thunderheads rolling across the sky.

No LJ, no questionable content, no paperbackswap, or librarything! Which is why I am up late now making up for lost time.

I nearly cut off my fingers from sheer boredom- if I couldn't type, what was the point of having them anymore?
