I think Maria is asking a legitimate question. Dad needs to be more patient with her, and explain when exactly being online became a thing. (Around 1990, or somewhere thereabouts.) I remember working in the Home Electronics section of Sears at around that time, and while a 286 unit was ok, the real deal was buying a 386 system. I think our phones these days would put those old units to shame.
