I remember MapQuest on dialup

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

That brings back some (mostly annoying) memories!

I recall wanting (and maybe using?) an option on MapQuest on dialup to choose how many of the turn-by-turn targeted maps to download, to save time and ink.

And I recall having to factor in dial-up map image download times and printer print-out times, into my total travel-time calculations.

Yes, I should have downloaded and printed the maps the night before, but my mother had a phone call with her mother.

I also remember MapQuest on dialup. Holy cow.
