When you were in school did you have internet and cell access?

Back in the day.....

Lemme figure this out....
I was 13 when you were born, and the CD player had just come out.
What would eventually become the cell phone was the size of a shoe box (and people STILL carried them like a status symbol)
and I got my info on microfiche when I went to the library...and yes, books.




And no, my hair isn't really grey

lol, no, we had no computers in school, and phones still had cords attached!
In grade 12 there was a big hulaballoo about whether to allow or ban calculators for tests, because some students had them and some didn't...
People miss out on a lot once they cease to flip through pages and go straight to the answer...

no internet or cell phones or computers...personal computers were new on the scene when i was in school and were not really owned by individuals, they were used by some businesses and in college you could use one at the library or in a computer lab. that was when floppy discs were actually floppy and windows didn't exist. a 10-20 megabyte hard drive was fairly large and would run most programs. i used a typewriter for term papers. we were not allowed calculators in math classes. i graduated high school in 1978

No, I didn't have internet access or a mobile phone, when I went to school in the 80s.

Well, I'm only 18, but I do remember when a page that loaded in five minutes was like "the thing" on the internet because it was "fast". And cell phones could be called primitive to what they are called today.

When I was in school it was long before the internet and cell phones existed!! (Okay, I think cell phones were just coming out but nobody had them and those that did, it was a big brick of a thing) I think the internet came out a couple of years after I graduated high school

I'm only eighteen but we were only allowed to use the internet for assignments at the library or the computer lab...

As for texting, everyone always did it at my school but the teachers made sure we didn't use them during tests...
