Summer of 1994 on a 486 Windows 3.1 PC. I had gotten back to the States after graduating high school at an American high school in Germany after living there for 10 years. I later reflected that I was the last generation who would experience living in a foreign country in the pre-internet age, being far more cut off from my home country than people would be after. I remember not liking web browsers much in the beginning because they were so slow and preferred Usenet groups. The internet was much more clunky and primitive, but also much more human. I really miss that aspect.
