                    New checks from Bank of America, circa 1983-85. It was a high-speed connection (300 baud); I probably could have driven down the mountain to the local branch office faster.:)

                            Just to be different... my first purchase was also from Amazon.com. I still have the faded receipt somewhere, it was for a set of maps of Normandy.

                              If you count online auctions - it was a second-hand Warhammer 40k Chaos Bezerker army. If you don't.... I suppose it was a book from amazon on Tapestry weaving.

                                      I remember buying an 80387 coprocessor from a forsale posting on Usenet sometime in the late 80's. Does that count as "online"?
