>< Does anyone remember the cost of internet access/online time via Compuse
>< in the 80s ? I need to give a comparison of today's cost of sending a
>< graphics file.

Allison recalled:

>1984 300 baud was 12.50hr connect time.
>1986 1200baud was 12.50hr
>1991 1200baud was 9.50hr
>1994 2400 6.00hr

At 1980s rates, my Internet bill these days would be running about two
grand a month. At 1980s speeds, I don't even want to think about it.

Thanks for the memories...
