My first internet session was also the first time I ever used Windows. It was 1995 at university, using Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and Netscape (IE didn't yet exist).

One of the first things I did was do a search for places to order Amiga software (I hadn't used my Amiga 500 since late 1991 because of lack of software). I ordered Beast 3 - my first online purchase (but sent a cheque - nobody used credit cards online).

One of the second things I did was check out the porn I'd been hearing so much about. I remember clicking on a button to see a picture and waiting as it displayed verrrrrry slowly, drawing line by line. I'd be sitting there saying "hurry up, damn it", but by the time it got to the girl's neck, somebody would walk by and I'd have to quickly close the window. Either that, or there would be a communication error at the most unfortunate moment. I never did see much.
