one of my first experience of world wide web was at my mom's workplace. they had the complete NeXT assortment: cubes, crts, printers, keyboard's, mice, EVERYTHING IN BLACK (if there ever was a perfect goth-hacker hardware, its this). and with NextStep OS - a unix (was it Linux or bsd? they called it Mach - predecessor to osX).
and this was where the first browser (called World Wide Web) was created (by Tim Berners-Lee).
