While this sounds like a grampa's "We walked to school two miles, uphill both ways, on our hands" kinda reply,

My first ISP wasn't. Dial-up access to uunet and being part of the Fidonet system was my first personal exposure to the 'net.

My first business exposure was uucp, followed quickly by simple Internet backbone access via a full T1 at Bell Labs.

when i got a printer... it was bliss.:D I started typing at 10 and every time my teacher told me to do homework id say... Can i type it?
She'd look at me weird but say yeah sure...
Since that time man... i have never written unless its for a signature or something that requires handwork...
Even if i get like HW from class copied from a book i scan it in and type in the answers and type it out...

HardASS:Yeah i am... (BTW why are ya called hardass heh):rolleyes:
