Anyone here that was on Prodigy in the very early 90's? The DOS 5.0, and 2400 Baud modems? I remember after working real late at work 2am I was 17 and I'd get home and log in to Prodigy (this is when it was unlimited access for 9.95 I think)
I'd log in, and go to the 'Clubs' section and click on the Games forum, and we hada group of people that hung out in this one topic (and kept it alive a LONG time--2 years) it was called "AD&D Comp CRPG -Ask Slash n Lord Murdok" I remember MANY times I got help from them to beat Pools of Darkness, Eye of the Beholder and many others.. This what when getting 'email' was a real BIG deal.. (Remember when it was exciting to get email, it was like getting a present or something...) I miss those days, but Prodigy went Pay per hour in 1992 or 93 and EVERYONE left and canceled their services.. me too.
Anyone else? BTW, Prodigy was 16 colors and 640x480
PS: And Packard Bell was the #1 seller of PC's (PUKE!)
