I just setup a very small page which contains screenshots of a small set of browsers displaying the msn.com website.

This is fun, the beginning of the net, I was 5 years old, and what did they talk about those days beside the internet-tech stuff?
-UMatic vs VHS vs Beta.
(NET.video)
-Whether the upcoming Bladerunner movie was based on the novel 'DADOES' by P.Dick or 'Bladerunner' by Alan E. Nourse.
(NET.sf)
-a posting announced the SOS campaign, SOS = Save Officer Spock, by a local radio station called WVXU-FM.
(FA.sf)
-The rumor was that the Dune movie was going to be a TV show
(NET.sf)
-mini-flamewar (4 messages) about helmets and motorbikes
(NET.motorcycles)
-The $6K PDP11/34 4Megs mem upgrade (oops) 'enhancement'
(FA.arpa-bboard)
-And all the digests in there are pretty cool too.
(currently looking at FA.telecom digests)
Incredible, this is pure history. And fun to read.
These days there's to much spam in the newsgroups.
All the html stuph as well makes it harder and harder to skim messages.
