Very first internet experience ... creating a hotmail account (which I still have) on a friends new computer (Windows 95) .. dialup modems.. did not use that email for a couple of years ... before I got a computer myself.. by then it was all about mIRC, ICQ, msn chat, yahoo messenger... especially Napster & DC++ (did I ever love mp3's) then Morpheus finally Kazaa and plenty of blue screens of death! Eventually I switched to soulseek and finally the wonderful world of torrents and the rest is history.

Installing Mosaic a long time ago. Using GOPHER and Delphi to browse online. Borrowing Kings Quest, Doom and Commander Keen disks from my neighbors so I could check them out.

Installing Quake and finding ftp.cdrom.com that had bots you could download and play against.

Life changed when Counterstrike, became an ease at home. Really one of my first online mp. Never really was much of a huge gamer.

I received a 1200 bauds modem, which was quickly exchanged for a 2400 bauds. Connecting to some BBS using my Amiga, then got a 14.400 bauds. Stayed quite a long time with that one, even when USRobotics released their HST 16.800.
It was thanks to a modem that I was able to go to my first demoparty, as we always get the invitations too late with mailswapping disks.
Sending e-mail with Fidonet and having to wait several days to get the answer
