In this way the puter network system would keep on working all the time.At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks began to use it, too. However, puters were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. At the beginning of the 1990s, puters became cheaper and easier to use.
