VOTD: The INTERNET from the past

The video below is a report from Tom Brokaw more than a decade ago, discussing how every company would be online by 2000.

I remember in the 80s, waiting for a few hours to be so excited to have sat with a friend and have seen a photo being sent from another friend.

We prank phoned a friend & were amused to hear her voice through the horrid computer speaker (one speaker, not two... there was no stereo option!)

My 44mb external hard drive in the 90s was several hundred dollars!
A few months ago I got a 6gig mini Sony usb drive for $6 at Frys in Burbank.
