When you're downloading something and it gives you a time estimate

damn 1000 years, ouch. Mine would just stop and go into indefinite and give me a prompt before.

Yeah, it was pretty surreal. It would flip to infinity after that though, if it didn't decide to drop.
It'd happen when it was downloading at .1mb/s

.1mb/s is 100kb/s which was insanely fast back then. You only got those speeds at a college campus or something. At home, you'd be happy with speeds of 14kb/s (or .014mb/s).

library was faster back then.

Sorry, that was a mismemory. It was .1kb/s
