- It's evidently only _my_ Internet-GEnie link that doesn't work, Bob.
- Everyone else that I've talked to that have done this says it's fine.
- I probably screwed it up myself. Go figure. :)

- BTW, Bill and Pattie Rayl of Atari Interface Magazine can be reached
- right here on the internet.
-
- And as nice as CIS is, it's still *very* expensive, compared to GEnie.
- For Atari users, GEnie is a _much_ better online service, with much
- more active Atari support than CIS and it's also the "official" online
- service of Atari Corporation (for what that's worth). CIS is huge and
- offers a _lot_ of services, but Atari-related stuff is better on GEnie.
-
- PC users, on the other hand, are *much* better off at CIS than GEnie.
