Comment on Bruce Sterling: Internet (1993)parent

It was around $15 to $20 for my family using dial-up in the mid 1990s ('94/95) for unlimited use (equivalent to maybe $7 to $10 today). 4kb / sec baby! The phone line was another $20, and you'd dial a local # for the ISP to avoid long distance fees. Never could talk my parents into getting a separate phone line just for the modem.
