Ohh noo!!! I make dribbles!!!
No, I don't. I had no internet at that time.
I remember the glory days of 28.8k. My first internet access was through Compuserve with a browser called Mosaic which really sucked.
We can't stop here... this is bat country
my first modem was a 7k. borrowed from a friend. we never had the internet till late, althought i grew up with computers. my first os was dos then windows 3.1
jp posted a pic yesterday of a portable computer, it was the exact same one my dad had. we used to play a game called rogue on it which you had to load manually. it had a black screen with green writing, it was cool. pity we chucked it out when we moved house 9 years ago it would probably be worth something now.
I started with the net at like 96-97. So I wouldn't remember internet in 1995.
Went online in 1998, and it was sooooo slooooooowwwww back then
My first computer was a Tandy, with the memory inside the keyboard
i remember back then i was barely introduced to the net, they had some free shit called owow.com and i was using it....it was cool
i still had my spare, had a monitor in only green, dos only....those fat ass 6 inch wide floppy disks that hold like 50 kb or something, had a few games like kings quest and rampage, but some idiot spilled pepsi on one of them, and when i cleaned it it left a stain on teh soft part and wouldn't read.......fuckers!!
My first introduction to the internet wasn't until '96 when I was taking a computer upgrading course (which was supposed to be 18 weeks long and I completed in 2 weeks and was subsequently hired by the company to teach).
Shortly thereafter I got my internet access at home, and very shortly thereafter was part of a pilot program for broadband in my area (probably early '98 might even have been late '97, but I can't remember now). I wasn't on dialup for long.
So in answer to your question... No... I don't remember the internet in 1995.
Yes kind of, I knew it was there was a thing called internet, and email.
We had a phone hooked upto an old Arcamedies (spelling) at school, and could dial out to certain Ftp's I presume, we just got pages of text, never really did know what it was all about, I had my Spectrum +2 at home
Modest much??..........Or do you just read aboat it(which was supposed to be 18 weeks long and I completed in 2 weeks and was subsequently hired by the company to teach).

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that at that time AOL charged by the hour, and my first monthly bill was $94. Needless to say I didn't stick with AOL very long.
