Snap, think we got ours in 1994 or 1995. A salesman came to the door and I bit his hand off I was so keen. Seem to remember there was a bit of an uproar at the time of the cabling project as people said they were killing the trees in my area by damaging the roots (Meanwood back then).
Then when broadband came it was seventh heaven. I remember 200k, there may well have been lower speeds before that but anyway it seemed like witchcraft after the misey of dialup.
