OT: WoW

[Lisa Kachold]

Oh!  It's "daily down and dirty" true!  I have lived it, managing the support pools as senior systems administrator for ISP's in the DotCom startup years in the Pacific Northwest!

Except what they don't show is that ALL worked in root, used telnet and hosted international porn along with sites like Cmates.com and KGON/KNRX.com!   These were fledgling dialup days via Livingston Portmasters 23B+D, email hosting was POP intensive as 60,000 users' Netscape grabbed their mail spool every 10 minutes.

Ringing phones were answered by support staff, signing up users or setting up Web hosting; the sound of money that portended the richness that those entrepreneurs amassed, paying staff tragically little without benefits until the telco's absorbed the business.

haha yes that was in the Onion movie... I loved it.
You know it's a sad world since I was actually scratching my head
thinking "is this true?"...

Thanks,
