It was around before that, but not in it'* current form. I was selling access to FidoNet back in the mid 80s. If memory serves, ArpNet was the network that became Internet. I had also sold access to WWIVnet, And a few others, but I dont remember anymore. So many networks, only one made it.
I think that was in the time of the BBS

I connected to different BBS with my Amiga before the PC became decent. I used a 14,400 USR Courier HST modem which was a popular high speed standard back then. I still have that old modem in the garage.
