Oh yeah, I do. That whole internet thing was a total HOAX. I can't believe people bought into that.

Well, how is your Solaris installation going?

I also remember having gone into research, because there were no jobs available, and even though I was employed at the time, our salaries weren't being paid.

Seems you don’t remember much of that time. Let me refresh: “we are the dot in dot com”

Remember that thing that caused it? That "Internet" thing? After those companies went bust it pretty much disappeared didn't it.
