Pre-Internet Rates
Cleaning space in the garage for the bike, found some old electronics and realized that after being stored a decade and a half it is not likely that I will ever be using them. So they are being tossed. Which included my sign-up package from The Source. Which included the Rates:
Using these rates for my present serviceStorage -- I have andruschak.net hosted and am presently using 117.62 MB of storage. Storage rates are $1/4K, so my storage costs would be another $30,000 a month.
Which is nothing compared with my connnect charges. I am on DSL and connected 24/7, so connect charges would be about $1000 a month. Except I am at about 600Kbps, not 300 bps, so the monthly connect charge would be well over a million dollars a month.
DSL for under $30/month is a pretty good deal compared with 1981.
