Hi everyone--I am seeking internet usage statistics for the U.S. from 1988 to 1995. The later years are easier to find but I can find nothing on the earlier years. Any ideas where I can find these? Are these even available? I've done some initial searches, but no luck. Any help would be much appreciated!
