A horrible, extremely slow internet connection. With dial up your phone and computer use the same line.

Dial-up - meaning

Slow medium for connecting to the Internet, which some people STILL use because:
1. They can't afford broadband (understandable, unlike the following)
2. They don't know about other ways to connect
3. They've been brainwashed into thinking AOL is number one

I'm surprised dial-up isn't free.
