SpeedStream 5260 ADSL Ethernet Modem

June 28, 2008

Knock on wood. I probably shouldn’t be writing about this but I will anyway.

Since the family is out of town, I’m taking the opportunity to clean up my little corner of the computer/guest room and get rid of a few things. I found a box from the SBC DSL Fulfillment Center. Inside was the original box that my SpeedStream 5260 ADSL Ethernet Modem came in.

I agree. Who cares? The only reason I’m posting about it is because this thing is pretty old in terms of Internet years. The packing slip that came with the box is dated May 8th, 2000. Do the math. The modem is over eights years old now. I’ve been through a bunch of computers, monitors, routers, etc. in the past eight years. Good to see something last.

Is there an equivalent calculation for internet-to-human years like there is for dog-to-human years?
