Yeah, well.  Some of us remember back in the days when the maximum
speed you could get out of something like 6 miles of bare copper wire
from the phone company was 19.2kbps.  That's the same sort of
connection one now gets several megabits of ADSL on.  That WAS the same
timeframe when people were just starting to figure out ways of getting
more than 1200bps out of dialup; only about $1000 each for the fancy
modems.

Now I feel old.
