RE: TOP THAT: Antique Email

[quills -at- airmail -dot- net]

I started with  a CompuServe and The Source accounts, picked up AOL 
when it first showed up, probably around 1989 or so. I remember I was 
excited about Prodigy, and got an account when they started. Then 
because I was only on a 300 Baud modem and the Prodigy graphics were 
so abysmal, AOL's graphic interface was light years ahead of them, I 
dropped the Prodigy account. I didn't like waiting for 3 minutes 
while it painted one line of the screen graphic at a time.

Then in 1993 or 1994, I got an account with a local ISP. An all text 
interface, and I selected emacs as my online text processor. Yeah, it 
got better real fast after that. Switched to a larger, more stable 
ISP a year later, and am still with that one. Funny thing was, I 
didn't use email too much until the WWW got really going.
