   Yeah, I remember doing all that - but I didn't use Internet in a Box.  I had   
   just downloaded the components separately and used them as you described.  I   
   started using Netscape around version 2.01, I think.  I didn't know Netscape   
   had a dialer.. Interesting.

   By wireless, do you mean wi-fi?  Wi-fi has been around for quite a while now..
