Stopped selling it in about 2001? Stopped using it in 1999. I was fortunate enough to have been part of an ISP startup when T1 was coming in, and my apartment was serviced by me.
Fun times, I ran a BBS and traveled around my town to the 3 ISPs that had started or were starting (all tiny) asking for a job. One of them was 2 guys who were setting up 300 external modems in a York Properties building basement. I got to be employee #3 on site, learned so much there since it was ground up.
