high speed computers are not needed to access the internet, i can access the internet on a 16 year old computer at the moment, it only has 4mb of ram and a processor clocked at 25mHz

what you do need to access the internet is a modem or ethernet connection the correct wires to connect the computer into a telecommunications terminal and some software like a java player since most sites rely on this type of coding

as for computers being faster in the 80's. no this is false computers were clocked in megahertz in the 80's and nowdays they are clocked in gigahertz (im assuming here that your talking about processor speed)

mega = 1000000
giga = 1000000000

thats a difference of 103


>It vary on how much bandwidth your computer receive. Imagine that a Pentium 1 computer will still receive the same amount of bandwidth with a quad duo. But the performance as you will observe how slow it respond.
