How long have you had internet access in your home?

I want to say about 10 years for me. I do remember when the fast access internet came out. I just thought it was amazing. I was just always so used to just using that slow as a turtle dial up connection.

Ive had the internet in my own home since 2003 but prior to that i used to use my mates internet when I was around his house. Using it at his house is what prompted me to get connected myself.

O yea I remember those days of using that slow dial up internet. My mom loves talking on the fun, but the only thing though is that, I could not get on internet whenever. Now I can because of the making of high speed internet.

Praise the lord for broadband eh lol. I remember when the sega dreamcast came out, trying to log on to the internet with that was a right pain in the a55, took about 15 mins to enter the chat rooms then after 2 mins of being in there you would be booted as the server was to busy

I have had the internet probably for about 6 to 7 years. I think the internet was a great invention. Without the internet I really do not know where many of us would be. This internet is really a great source for many of us. We can have fun, learn, and especially fellowship and make money on this great site called mylot.

I've had internet access in the home for about 11 years now. Oh, I remember those dial up days. I hated it too. But thank God for high speed internet. Now I can get a lot done in one day with high speed.

I have started to use internet since 1997. So you can see this year is my 11 years to use internet.

I have internet access for five years now. At first it was just dial up, because I don't have much need because I seldom use the internet. After a few years, I shifted to broadband because it's much faster than dial up and I'm spending more time in the internet.
