I remember when the 2400 baud Supra modem was the best thing going.
I remember being on AOL and playing turn-based wargames where we had to save the game after each turn and then email it to our opponent. Me and a guy played the entire Utah Beach campaign that way with the V 4 Victory game.
I remember playing a challenge ladder for the Perfect General game on CompuServe. It was hideously expensive with the long-distance phone rates and super slow transfer rates.
I remember signing on to BBS's and spending forever to download gif (not jpg) files of sexy photos, such as the legendary Bluebird series of Japanese glamour models.
Ah yes, I remember the days. Things are much faster now, but not necessarily better.
