6 Actually, I used Mosaic to surf the web and then moved on to a browser
7 called IBrowse (then Voyager...). Worked like a charm (esp. considering
8 the relatively low intensity home pages at the time in the beginning of
9 the 90'ies - via a 14400 bit modem...). Of course flash can bring even
10 modern hardware to it's knees (yes, I'm allergic to that too).
