Must be nice to have your very own message boards to troll.

First, you need to download and install an internet browser that is capable of displaying JPEG and GIF images. I recommend Mosaic 1.0, it looks like it can do that just fine and I've been using it for about a month now. Then you point over the picture, right click it, and pick "Save Picture".

It's nice, but I can't help but agree. Unlike BBS, you can't really talk to people that quickly on it. There just isn't enough speed and bandwidth for it right now.

Oh man, I've been copying them with tracing paper!
Now.... there's this one thing I need to ask... I keep hearing there's... like, porn on the internet. Surely it's a lie.... right?

Like everything on the WWW, you just have to know where to look. Good luck.

Not if you install the Master Control Program.

Neat! Will that allow me to download whole screens, or "webpages" so I can save them and enjoy them later?

I heard from some helpful people that deleting system 32 from my computer can help it run faster. I'll be right back, testing this out...

I am using this World Wide Web from a friends and am quite interested in getting a computer of my own to "surf" or whatever it was they call it. Do you guys have any recommendations as to what type of computer I should use and where I can get a dial-up service provider?

My only real advice is to make certain your children aren't racking up the modem hours. Once you exceed the maximum on your plan, it can get expensive very quickly.

I have another question. Will I be able to make phone calls while I am connected to the Web or will I have to have another phone line installed? 3
