netmasta Posted February 10, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 10, 2005 Before AOL: Q-Link disk Q-Link was AOL's (then called Quantum Computer Services) service for the Commodore computer. You could call it the first real precursor to the AOL service, since it provided news, entertainment, chat, etc. Before Quantum was Quantum, its name was CoVideo Corp., and its product was GameLine, an online service for owners of Atari game machines. It allowed people to download games over the phone lines. I still miss Prodigy Classic, my first "isp". They succumbed to y2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

php Posted July 13, 2005 CID Share Posted July 13, 2005 If the person who started the topic decides to come back 2 or 3 months later with either the same problem or wanting to say thanks or such, and can't do this, they aren't very happy... there is other reasons but I can't think of them off the top of my head...
