@Bunnyslope also as a dedicated Commodorefag, I always love to point out that AOL was originally just QuantumLink for PCs

@Bunnyslope you didn't need to have GEOS to use QuantumLink, and vice versa. (In fact, the QL client was a native 64 program, it wouldn't run under GEOS.) You could always get a QL client disk on its own as well.Fun fact, the AOL client for DOS was built as a PC/GEOS application, and if you had an AOL disk from the DOS era, a runtime edition of PC/GEOS was used to run the client similar to how some other supposedly DOS software were bundled with and ran in runtime editions of Windows 1.0 and 2.x.

Windows beat GEOS because they had better sales guys, not better product :(

@olmitch @Bunnyslope as things have always been, those with best PR win over those who are actually best :(
