Quoting profdlp

When I read this it made me think that we might someday look back at todays broadband and view it the way we now think of 300 baud.

I remember the day I upgraded my 300 baud accoustic coupler modem to a 1200 baud serial port modem and thought "wow, this blistering speed is awesome"

just prior to this I had upgraded my 286 with 20Mb HDD and 2Mb of RAM (which when I bought it was cutting edge) to a 386 with 16Mb (yes an unbelievable 16Mb) and an 80Mb HDD and was thinking "man I am never going to be able to fill this hard drive it's so huge"

*SIGH*

My home connection of 3Mb now is too slow for me and my P4 3.02 with 1GB of Ram and and ATI 850 graphics card and two 160Gb ata HDD's could still be improved ... *double SIGH*
