Ah the good ol' days of dial up...
« on: July 01, 2011, 10:12:30 PM »
I actually just got off of Dial Up at the new house (I got hurt and had to get sent home from, Afghanistan).

Anyway, this is what a 56K modem that is slowed down 700% sounds like....pretty trippy...

I always turned that stupid sound off. There's really no point to it. Not many people knew you could do that though.
