It was bad, not awesome! I was around (after 1988 really, from commodore and up) and I remember it was damn slow, even I got an HST 9600 which was very new at the time. Also you hit the "busy line" in BBSs this was frustrating, is like 2 people connect is a ddos already. Just it was cheaper than internet since I was using bluebox really, no one of my friends made normal calls.
