Title
Griffin Internet
Description
The company quickly established an enviable reputation, and Griffin-built PCs were the subject of many favourable reviews in the computer magazines of the time.
In early 1995, Griffin started the process of designing and building an ISP for the East Midlands. On 1st October 1995, Griffin launched the UK’s first un-metered Dial-up service to subscribers of Nynex Cable TV in Derby. At the time, the service was built on 3 Linux servers, 6 incoming lines and a 64Kbit/s leased line to the Internet, although rapid growth saw the infrastructure grow dramatically in the months following the launch.
Since then Griffin have continued to innovate and has been behind many Internet firsts, including being the first European company to broadcast live music on the Internet and being the company behind the first Premier League football commentary on the Internet.
