The Queen of England was on the internet before most of you were even born. :eek:

The date was March 26, 1976, and the ARPANET — the computer network that eventually morphed into the internet — had just come to the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment, a telecommunications research center in Malvern, England. The Queen was on hand to christen the connection, and in the process, she became one of the first heads of state to send an e-mail.

Probably still doesn't know how to turn a computer on without asking one of her servants to do it for her.
 
The real question here is was her first email also consider the first spam message?
 
I highly recommend browsing the books and educating yourselves on her history, listening to her speeches starting with the one from WW2 and going on, because it will make you say it and mean it:
God bless the Queen!
 
I heard that she was kicked out of the internet/irc famous band God Ate My Homework for "artistic differences."

This is Kyle Bennett and his Mom all over again, she's the one who introduced him to Doom if I remember correctly.
 
This thread has inspired me to look up Queen of England porn.. wish me luck!
 
See that fluffy thing besides the monitor? Her wireless charging station.
 
Just found her first email, actually.
