oh and one of the things that prevented the Internet/BBSes etc. getting bigger here is lack of cheap phone lines - no local loop, no free local calls.

It meant my parents refused to get me a modem circa 1983/4 (I'd probably seen War Games or something LOL) - and later in the 80's and early 90s, because the phone calls were prohibitively expensive. If for that and BT's monopoly who knows what might have been. I had access to computers at home from 1981, both my parents were in IT.
