Some time during the 90's - probably as soon as it was available in the middle of nowhere town that I'm from.

We had it in our house in college in 94. Roommate's dad worked for IBM and got him a nice computer. We had to dial into the school's server. All I remember we could really do was search the library and post on discussion boards.

I'm honestly still impressed when a 1+ GB video file downloads in a few minutes. It feels like yesterday that downloading a movie required letting it go all night and praying it didn't time out before morning.
