Boy, that goes back in time. I remember marveling over the new 1200 baud modem that were on 3 plug in cards. Remember 110 baud, TTY days gone by? How did we ever manage major control systems at that rate? LOL

It has indeed. You simply weren't around it then. It was around, connecting
governments and academic institutions, in the early 1970s (then known as
ARPANET), and switched to the TCP/IP protocols we all use now in 1983.
ARPANET expanded dramatically, and its replacement (in management; nothing
else really changed) by NSFNET in 1985, followed by NSFNET's opening to the
commercial world in the early 1990s, produced the INternet we know today.
