The Minitel has been around in France since the 1980's. The little screen and modem were free to households, and they could actually do some online shopping, play games, play the Stock Market, look up phone numbers and addresses for people and businesses throughout the country. The longer you were "online", the higher your phone costs were; even though, it was pretty cool, and the forerunner of the PC. Now, it will be phased out, and will take its rightful place in history.
