Welcome to Computer History.

We are nolstagia driven with our choice of posts and discussion of the impact of technology.

A lot of what ends up posted here has a bias towards the 1970s' up until now simply because "we" experienced a lot of this "new" technology directly as it was released.

Our community goal is to become more than just a collection of links-- we want to be a community of shared experience.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.capebreton.social, are as follows:

Ever wonder how a dial-up ISP from the 90s actually worked?

We did, so to find out, we decided to start our very own dial-up ISP... like it's 1993! Come along as we hear from Pete Ashdown, the founder of XMission, one of the earliest commercial ISPs in the United States that's still going strong today. We also find out what hardware we'll need, but will our journey end before it even gets started?
