How To Talk Face-to-face With Friends And Family Over Hundreds Or Thousands Of Miles For Free
Back in the eighties, it wasn’t that usual to have a modem in your computer, if you even had one. These days, there are different kinds of modems – cable modems, DSL modems, and dialup modems like I used to have.
Even though dialup modems seem incredibly slow these days, compared to “broadband” connections like DSL and cable, they are amazingly fast compared to the ones you could get back in the 80s.
I remember that when I got my first dialup modem for my first computer. Back then, most computers didn’t have modems; modems have been standard in most computers for years now, but are starting to get phased out because they’re so out of date.
