Yeah slow?

Try using a 2400baud modem, that was slow

[bluGill]

I started on 300baud - but never accessed the internet from that so I won't count it in this discussion.

Those things always confuse me. I think 2400 baud modems were like 9600 bps? At least 56k modems were 8000 baud.

[raverbashing]

no, the other way

2400 were 300 bytes per second

(though it might be that 9600bps worked at the 'official definition' of 2400 baud but nobody advertised it like that)
