first email from space[edit]
STS-43 was in orbit from August 2nd to August 11. Thus it could not have sent the first email from space on the 28. http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/shuttle/shuttlemissions/archives/sts-43.html In the future, I suggest you cite your sources.
External links modified[edit]
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on AppleLink. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20040218114345/http://homepage.mac.com:80/vectronic/2003/opinion/0723.html to http://homepage.mac.com/vectronic/2003/opinion/0723.html
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Early years - GEIS[edit]
I was one of the GEIS developers who helped with AppleLink, through it's whole life on GEIS.
The exorbitant fees GEIS charged in the last couple years of early AppleLink were General Electric's way of saying "we know you're going away, so we're going to squeeze every nickle we can out of you." Really dumb, but this was a decision driven by salesmen on commission. As some people may know, the 1990s was not GE's most shining decade. 24.102.202.162 (talk) 22:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
