ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
WHY WE'RE OBSESSED
Getting online begins with a proper connection window, complete with 14.4, 28.8, and 56K modem choices, a phone number, speaker volume, and the sacred request that nobody use the telephone.
Once connected, the desktop offers a browser, email, chat, calculator, Minefield, Painter, and other era-appropriate reasons to stay online longer than planned.
The modem handshake and deliberately slow loading restore the suspense of wondering whether an image will finish before somebody in the house picks up the receiver.
