[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] TCP in business

Gee, I can think of lots of them, starting with where
I work, where I used to work and where I worked before
that.  

The best example I know of, however, is at the Bank of Milan
in Italy (Europe - home of ISO, right?) and in all the
systems built by DATAMAT of Rome. DATAMAT is a systems
engineering house who builds systems for business and
the financial community, as well as governmental systems.

Come to think about it, SUN now has a Wall Street sales
office since they are selling SUNs, which use TCP-IP,
to investment firms.

I guess these qualify.

Folks,

As far as I know, the INTELPOST electronic mail system was the first to
adopt TCP/IP circa 1982. This is a facsimile-mail system first built by
BBN and then rebuilt by COMSAT Laboratories. It was operated by the US
Post Office and overseas affiliates. It use PDP11/40s and the fuzzball
network code. I know not if it is still in business.
