I signed up for PRODIGY lately--it's free for a month. Loaded it up & ran some Frinday night. My first impression: it has a nice interface, but it's SLOW!!! I have a 2400-baud modem, but thought I was back at 300. I saw a nice hardware/software catalog, prices are comparable to most mail order houses. I liked looking at the ACCU-Weather stuff. Generally, however, I wasn't impressed. Was looking for some forums, etc., & didn't find much. Maybe I didn't look in all the nooks & crannies, I don't know. I probably will let it drop after this month. I like NETNEWS. It's crude, but lots of topics.
