Wired93: part the second
Wherein we discuss pages 20 – 31.
- a letter to the editor from Eric Kettunen (posted on America Online) discussing how wired his family home is with a 486 PC, a Mac, two phone lines and a 9600 baud modem
- an ad for Dysan brand floppy diskettes – 5.25″ and 3.5″
- a Tired/Wired inset featuring Schwarzenegger/Mystery Science Theater 3000 (still accurate)
- the launch of a proliferation of cable channels including “Television Food Network”
- interview with James Parry, who seems to have been a precursor to the likes of 4chan while operating his Kibo personality (which is still going strong)
- DCC – Digital Compact Cassette – from Philips: I had no idea what this was, either
- Digital Queers: “We’re here, we’re queer and we have E-mail.”
