Nationwide Computer Systems Celebrates it's 20th Year

We've seen a lot of changes in the computer and information markets since we began business in 1986. IBM-compatible PC's with glaring amber monitors have evolved into blazing fast multimedia workstations, and the Internet, which was virtually unheard of back then, is now the world-wide network we all share to do our daily business.

As technology changes, so do the products and services we offer, but our commitment to keeping our customers on its cutting edge, through our technical expertise and top-notch customer service, has remained the same for 20 years and will continue through the next 20!

A Blast from the Past !!

1988 - What a year to get a business computer!

For only $4,995.00 you could buy one of our Force Turbo XT PC's with a whopping 640K of RAM, a dot matrix printer, Ability word processor and Cougar Mountain accounting software (hard drive optional!).

1996 - Time to get on the information superhighway

Nationwide becomes a full service ISP offering dialup, high speed internet, web hosting and email to south Florida (and now much of the southeast U.S.). Sum.Net, one of many rural ISPs created under the Nationwide umbrella, provides Sumter County, FL with its first local dialup Internet service.

2002 - Communications setup in the jungles of Laos

In addition to providing Internet to rural counties in the US, Nationwide has installed communications systems in even more remote areas such as Ecuador, St. Maarten Island, and even at a gold mine in the jungles of Laos.
