Curious, why do you remember day 1 for you?

I don't know mine. I do remember sitting in my kitchen at the family computer listening to the modem connect via an AOL disc though. Sometime in the late 90s if I had to guess.

Apparently in 1998 half of all cds produced worldwide had an AOL logo on them. Wild.

Because my 15 year older brother got it for Christmas for the family that year. We open gifts on the 24th, which if why I remember it.
