I remember when a "gateway" was a Microvax II with an ethernet card and a bisync card

I remember the day when the microvax II and all the other vaxes on campus were upgraded from CMU-TEK to the Multinet TCP/IP stack. Gone were the days of maxing out at 14kbit/s on the high speed 10 megabit co-ax campus backbone - we could now get hundreds of kilobits per second. The joy of it. That decision to upgrade happened the day that all CMU-TEK installations in the world went offline due to some bug or other. Nick
