OP Types: "SO WHY DON'T YOU USE A 28.8 MODEM AND A CRT MONITOR SMART GUY??????"

Lol I think I still have my old windows 95 pentium PC, tricked out with an NVIDIA NV1 graphics card/Viewtronic 100 pound CRT, original PS/2 rubber ball light wheel mouse, add-on sound blaster card and might even have a ventrilo server i could boot up and use with a crappy headset with 1 speaker on the side (oh wait that was Luclin era) never mind on vent/headset.

Unfortunately, while I still have my Usrobotics 56k modem, I no longer have a phone line in my house to plug it into :/ -- though you can simulate the connection issues by using an old 10base-t network and a bad terminating resistor to slow it down a bit.

But more seriously, while I am personally ok with these changes to get the full on classic experience, I had been pushing this to friends - who mostly signed on to play for their first time ever - only to say their not so hot on the idea now that the QoL features are being nerfed. So I am sad about that, but like I said, it won't stop me from playing anyway.
