You can buy a “How to use America Online” book to go with it, they’re just $1,700. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fi... -Thomas F.

What am I missing? There are other CDs on there of similar versions but different packaging that seem to be $5. Is the high values only on the Mac versions of the product? Has anyone tried rebuilding the backend to drive the old AOL software? I know someone is working to rebuild a Prodigy back-end. - Ethan

Many years ago, I implemented a QuantumLink backend (QLink Reloaded), and the older pre 4.0 AOL disks would work on that service, as I recall. Jim -- RETRO Innovations, Contemporary Gear for Classic Systems www.go4retro.com store.go4retro.com
