Thanks Jared, When I reminisce with my boss he reminds me that this telco/ISP here initially started with a 56kbps internet uplink , lol
Point of History: When we, The World, first began allowing the general public onto the internet in October 1989 we actually had a (mildly shared*) T1 (1.544mbps) UUNET link. So not so bad for the time. Dial-up customers shared a handful of 2400bps modems, we still have them. * It was also fanned out of our office to a handful of Boston-area customers who had 56kbps or 9600bps leased lines, not many. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: +1 617-STD-WRLD | 800-THE-WRLD The World: Since 1989 | A Public Information Utility | *oo*
