Sure is good getting ADSL. I don't use it heavily but when I use it I'm glad of my 8 mbps through iiNet's ADSL2.
I started out on 1200 and remember quite clearly upgrading to 2400 then 14.4kbps.
I remember spending night after night during highschool dialing up various BBS like Omen, which I then joined for internet, then got bought out by iiNet.
I bet before long someone will pipe up with a story about punch cards in this thread
