Msg 45047 is 15 line(s) on 08/10/91 from JAMES SCHMIDT to ALL re: SO YOU THINK PRODIGY IS SLOW? I had the opportunity to install a communication package that accesses a relatively new service called 'America Online' You may be getting or have already received an offer to trial the service for free. Well let me tell you, I you are a DOS 5.0 user it flat out won't run until you to a SETVER to something less that 5.0 and if you have a hard drive partitioned to greater than 32 Mb you must use 4.0x. Once installed it executes in the same GUI that PC GEOS uses. It is as slow as or slower than Prodigy (2400 baud max). The initial sign on procedure takes about 15 minutes (it askes a dozen questions and asks the usual credit card/ billing address stuff). Once in the service you CAN do file downloads but based on my stop watch estimates I would guess they are about 25% efficient. YUCK. Based on this you are really paying 4x the $4.00 offprime connect time or about $16 per hour. I'll stick with CIS.

I also have a CD ROM player, a few IDE hard drives, lotsa VGA cards and even a whole computer. oh yeah, did I mntion Ethernet cards? Anyway, If you are interested in something, call American ARCHIVE BBS, which I check for messages daily. leave mail for SYSOP there. Anything I do not sell by next weekend *Aug 17* I will take to the annual CACHE fest at DeVry (Its still the third Sunday in August, right?) So I do not want to clog up this BBS with all the details, so call my board and read all about it. but act fast! It all goes at the CACHE FEST!
