That's a damn lie. DSL came out shortly after.. cable modem came out 6 months after. Plus dsl and cable were only available in certain areas at that time

1997 just for DOCSIS 1.0, there were other proprietary cable modem standards even earlier than that.

I had Cable also when EQ came out. Stepfather(who brought EQ home in August of 99) worked for a cell company that got cable for all their employees that worked from home for faster connection.

I lived in Vegas when EQ was released. We had cable modem through Cox.

BTW, I stole your camp when you went LD.

I had a cable modem in late 1997- early 1998. I know it was no later than June of 1998 because I had it while a senior in high school and that's when I was done.

And yes cable was only available in certain areas - so what?
