I remember when 60 seconds was the target time to finish loading a web page with images over a 14.4. I remember scrolling on an unaccelerated SVGA card and watching the screen repaint. I remember being impressed at how gopher would only redraw the parts of the screen that changed, making browsing gopherspace bearable at 1200bps. I remember queuing downloads of shareware games over zmodem and waiting an hour or more to find out whether they would even run on my hardware, and having to go do something else while I wait because my OS couldn't do multitasking and even if it could it would drop bits because the 8250 UART didn't have a buffer.
