15 Years

This Christmas, I will celebrate having owned a modem for 15 years.

I still own that modem, but no longer use it.

The modem I currently use (a mobile broadband modem) seems worse than that one, but maybe I just can't remember 15 years ago well enough.

If you want to remember 15 years ago dial up using your phone as a modem (don't cheat and do a 3g or gprs connection!) - it really was very slow!

The other week I threw out the 14.4 modem I'd had for around 15 years - I still have Owen's PCMCIA 56k modem - I suspect he's forgotten I have it.
