Re: 300bps modems said by KrK:I never had a CompuServe account, but knew a few people who did. First service I had was Prodigy..... It was cool, but I was in college and money was tight and I shut it off. Later I got Sierra Online right as it relaunched as the INN "The ImagiNation Network".... Anyone remember that? One of it's highlights was you could play the game "Red Baron" online. Boy you guys think lag is bad these days.... LOL..... I had CompuServe for a couple months, I couldn't justify the price and dropped it. I did have Sierra Online. During the special pricing I think it was something like $15 for 30 hours/mo. I was in a Red Baron squadron, but didn't play it too much, lag caused too many problems. I also think in those days you paid extra if you used a 2400 baud modem. To this day, the best game of Hearts I ever played was on Sierra. There were some expert card players there. After the special pricing, I went with the cheapest plan since getting 30 hours was way too high. But I worried so much about going over my limit, which was just a handful of hours per month, that I dropped it.
