I don't think that timescale is correct, at least for my youth (in The Netherlands). 1997 was about the year that we started to get always-on Internet access at home (with cable and adsl). Dial-up was already well-established by then.

Me and my classmates were well-aware of the Internet before that. I remember browsing for FastTracker 2 samples my second year in highschool (1995 that must've been).
