Lifecycle

KindDateDetailsRefs
birth Mar 2000 Radtek Pty Ltd (ACN 083 304 894) registered its ABN 9 Mar 2000, initially trading as 'Atlantic Quality Computers' and 'The Computer Cafe' (both trading names from 9 Mar 2000); 'Atlantic Internet' added as a trading name 10 Oct 2000; informal operation by Oct 1999 - earliest Wayback capture of atlantech.com.au. Ran dialup plus hosting and 'The Computer Cafe' internet cafe on a 2Mbit HDSL link. gov archive
note Oct 2001 Rebranded as Atlantic Digital: business name ATLANTIC DIGITAL registered 17 Oct 2001 (same Radtek Pty Ltd); successor domain atlanticdigital.net first captured 20 Jul 2001 and operated continuously afterwards - Brisbane ISP offering 56k dialup and ISDN plus domain, web, email and database hosting ('We do NOT use satellite traffic'), alongside the Computer Cafe portal. archive gov
death c. 2007-08 approx Dialup/ISDN retail service wound down around 2006-2008: the online signup wizard was last captured in June 2006 and the Computer Cafe portal's final update dates to 2008. The business continued as an IT services provider (corporate/hardware pages live until 2013) before going quiet; by 2019-2020 the domain carried unrelated third-party content (Wix-hosted site, off-site blog feeds), suggesting lapse or reuse. NOTE: earlier versions of this record dated both names' deaths to 2001 - that reflected website staleness, not the business, which traded on for years. Proposal's c. 2006-08 range confirmed by replayed captures (transition fell Jun 2007–Jul 2008); the entity survives on non-ISP business. last 'Brisbane ISP' retail homepage 29 Jun 2007; corporate IT site 'Your Technology Business Partner' by 1 Jul 2008. archive archive archive archive gov
