Me too. I remember getting a special doo-dad from US Robotics (or
someone?) that did auto-dial so that we could use more than one computer
on the net at the same time. That experience was part of what drove us
to become a WISP.

I remember as far back as Netscape - it automatically did the
protocol:// but you needed to do foo.bar.com <http://foo.bar.com>. Are

Hey...
My kids make fun of me because I still type "www" in front of any
website that I go to... anyone else remember the day when a website
would not load without the www in front? :)
