What about the dial-up being slowed down:

[jasey]

My first real computer that was my own was a machine with Windows 3.1 on it. I remember it fondly!

[kitten]

probably some old windows crap..

[Catchy]

Haha I can't remember was probably really old Windows 95 or something, I loved that game DX Ball was it called? ahahahah

Loving the HD graphics

[Chippiewill]

can anyone explain what that sound actually IS?

Low beeeep: (I'm a modem!)
High beep: (Oh, please tell me you're a modem too!)
PSHHHGGhghggghghgshhh: (You're a COMPUTER? What's your speed?)
Shhhh Ba-bong...ba-bong..: (Oh, you're a high speed (14.4 HST or greater) modem)
PSHHHHHhhhh: (Okay, we've negotiated our speed)
SHHHHHHH: (Okay, we're connected, I'm turning off my speaker).

Fun fact, it never even had to make a sound.

I think I had a Commodore 64, I just remember larger than usual floppy discs It was there just to play interesting pixel games, one was called AirWolf I think and was quite a good army game - you get an Apache and then a fighter jet

After that it was Windows 95.

A bit like ATMs, self-service check-outs and anything with a delay while it counts something, then? They all make unnnecessary sounds to re-assure you something is happening It seemed too good to be true that the dial-up sounds were actually doing something useful other than sound nice.
