I've only heard of rotten - but my daughter will no doubt know and never told me it might be a memory unlocked for her!
The only computers in school when I was there were BBC Micros and they were only used in computer club, which i wasn't clever enough to go to, even though I had an Acorn Electron at home and thought I was a top basic programmer, with my never ending scroll of "hello" across the screen, in CEEFAX style font!
First PC I bought was a second hand Windows 95 in 2002, which sounded like a struggling moped (on a good day). I remember typing "Big Brother" into 'Ask Jeeves' which was on TV at the time and getting some questionable results
We had top of the range Acorns in school and we had shared dial up of some kind , not sure if it was perhaps cable that was a smidge quicker but it was still slow. Kids today won't understand the struggle of waiting 3 hours for a song to download on Kazaa on Bearshare
