About Workman.net.au:
In 1980 Mark Workman used an Apple II Plus and an acoustic coupler to send an urgently needed document from a small business in Sydney to a construction site in Perth. The document travelled the 3,297 kilometres in 20 minutes. That began a lifelong passion for computer networking and using its power to overcome the tyranny of distance that hampers Australian business development outside of the capital cities.
Workman.net.au is passionate about servicing the IT needs of rural and remote Australians. At Workman.net.au we want people living in rural and remote Australia to have the same opportunity to benefit from computer technology as those in major cities. Our mission is to ensure that our clients get the return they need from their investment in computers and technology regardless of where they are located.
