      This sound wasn't actually to wake up parents it is actually the calling modem and the receiving modem talking to each other the first part is a dial tone and number tones the next part is the modems settling on a V standard to use after that the receiving modem disables echo cancelation because that can corrupt data sent over the telephone lines and the modems start listing their capabilities then a spectrum is sent by each modem to measure the physical telephone lines, after that each modem takes turns sending random data so they can learn what each other sounds like over the telephone lines and finally the both send tones at the same time so that they can do the final training into learning what each other sounds like over the lines, the last bit of sounds are the two modems "talking" simultaneously transferring data after the speaker of the modems mute.

    This and floppy disks. My father would download games at work on floppydisks for us and bring them home. Good memories of me, my younger brother and dad all behind the computer booting up the games and hope it all worked. So many games, one that stuck with me was this game that you where a man holding a baseball bat and you where supposed to whack a man on a bike over a ravine. It was so simple yet me and my younger brother would play it for hours. He did the bike guy i did the swing, and we would switch from time to time. Looking back it was basically prehistoric happy wheels. Took 2 floppy disks to download no less!

    Back in the second half of the 90s, I remember we were on AOL, now at the time, it was a penny per minute, doesn't sound much in money right? Wrong, by the time our next telephone bill came in it was a few hundred pounds. So we made a rule in the home that however many minutes a person was online, they would go into the settings and see exactly how many minutes it had been for their personal session and put into a big jar, the exact amount of pennies.......good job we did that because when the next bill came through for that quarter, £634 was the total. We had that amount in the jar to pay it........thank God for broadband shortly afterwards that is all I will say LOL
