AOL was a good thing from 1991 to 1995 or so (Score 1)

No. For the non-technical user, AOL rocked (compared to the other options) from 1991 to 1995ish. And even after the Netscape was a much better browser, AOL was still the easiest way to get online until the late 90s. I still have my aol address, but that's only because I've had it since 1991 and people can find me that way.
