You know, I love Linux. But I’m fine with Windows as well.

How about all the Linux fanatics please fucking block this community so we don’t have to read your bitching EVERY single place you post, huh? I like going to the Linux communities and discussing the nice things happening.

And there are plenty of places for you people to go and bitch about everything.

It’s like a fucking religion with some of you. Or like how some of you characterize vegans. Nothing wrong with vegans, it’s the one who are constantly screeeeeching about it that are the problem. And you asshats are like that. Your opinion is fine, just leave me the hell alone to use Linux AND Windows.

Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!

I think it’s trying to be like an AOL/CompuServe type instead of a standard ISP, which back then would not have had nearly that much information.

I think it’s sort of like… a passing generalization, like how accurate a ren faire is or a theme park. heh

It wasn’t really quite like that, but this is close enough to give folks not around then a general taste of it. :)

The modem is simulating a relatively late protocol. I started at 1200 baud with BBSes in 1987. I have used 300 baud, which takes a while to give you a screen of text. I used to be able to give you the general actual connection speed - because it depended on the quality of the line as to what you actually got. heh.

A pretty nice site. Not 100% accurate, but not bad. Feels more like around 1994 than 1996 to me.

Also a bummer that they didn’t actually make the windows moveable, but that’s a quibble and a lot of work. I also tried to see if I could get commandline, but i"m very unsurprised they didn’t - that would hve been a lot more work :)
