HARRUMPFFF... AppleLINK sucks... After I ordered my "free" T-Shirt a few
months ago, my account was suddenly "no good"  and I never did get that damned shirt
... I don't like AppleLINK, I never did and I
certainly wouldn't waste one thin dime on it under any name! AppleLINK is good
for the freeloaders that have privileges, but a BUST for people that have to
pay for access.

I've only met one ONLINE service worth the money for what you get in return
and that would be EXEC-PC, a MS-DOS system that charges $60 a year (went up
from $45) for an hour a day access and is PC-P direct accessible (time spent
in messaging is credited towards increasing your daily limit) and has many
support sections (as well as question and answer forums)...
