Yes, I was 16 as well in 1986 and was also interested in technology, especially when it was called 3615 ULLA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fmsF6PDXwc, probably NSFW because it is horribly politically incorrect today, like most of what we had in the 80's)
On the serious side - Minitel was such an incredible experience! The only feeling similar to that was the first email I sent in 1992.
I feel it is a horribly lost opportunity to lead the web, teen like us were driving the idea a lot (I was trying to explain my parents to not take the phone book anymore becauseit was all there, a search away...)
