ISDN..the good old days. When my friend's dad moved out to our area, he couldn't get anything decent, connection wise. This was when DSL was first emerging as the New Hot Thing, and cable wasn't available in the area. So he got ISDN instead, and had a block of 256 IPs. Yep, for the house. We ran tons and tons of machines, all world reachable, and had great fun. It was a business class ISDN account, since he worked from home, and I recall the bill being staggeringly high. Eventually it was cheaper to just pay for AT&T to install the required lines for DSL, and he did.

Man, ISDN. I thought I was the bomb with my Red Hat 5.2 box, a 133mhz P1 Dell with 128MB of RAM. downloading stuff at 14KB/sec. Got my first introduction to Solaris there also.

Oh the good ol' days...
