I'm sitting here flaming about Prodigy but I guess it's because they hacked me off (no pun intended), not with their rate increase (I pay much more for Well usage than I would for Prodigy, even with e-mail surcharge) but with their completely unsubtle, unrestricted commercialism. What made it worse for me, with my klunky little 8088 & mock-Hercules grafix, was the time it took to build those clever little add-bites. Argh! %-)
