VISP & Bandwidth Galore

RIP. Worked there in 97 for a few years. Back in the day some companies wanted to offer their own internet services via those giveaway cd's and make money from it. Remember going into the likes of John Lewis and even the mighty Mesh Computers to sell the concept to them. Then moved into the leased line business unit and setup their channel. I recall some after hours Counter strike and back in those days the latency was a dream due to size of our pipe <cough>. Also, early years sight corruption due to there being no filters of what we could see being sent through the internet back then has scarred me for life. Great times until Thus...
