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. /steve 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 $45) for an hour a day access and is PC-P direct accessible (time spent in messaging is credited towards increasing your daily limit) and has many support sections (as well as question and answer forums)... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | UUCP: crash!pro-exchange!sschneider COMPU$ERVE : 75166,2544 | | ARPA: crash!pro-exchange!sschneider@nosc.mil GENIE : sschneider | | INET: sschneider@pro-exchange.cts.com * My son is a Georgia Tech freshman | | I work for Xerox Corporation for decent bucks but dream of Palto Alto RC | | The RainForest @ 305-434-4927 / PO Box 841422, Pembroke Pines, Fl, 33084 | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
