[“EarthLink will connect you at up to 56Kbps.” Click for a larger disc.]
I moved a printer and made a discovery. Look at the RAM requirement for Earthlink’s dial-up app: 32, 64, or 128MB. (The Mac I’m typing on has 8GB RAM.) And the operating systems: remember Windows ME, the Millennium Edition? Worst Windows ever. (Shudder.)
This disc has a 2002 copyright date. EarthLink is still in business in 2018, and still offering dial-up service. But it’s time to let this disc go, no?

Yes, I too suffered with Windows ME. After fighting endless battles with it for several years I switched to a Mac and never looked back.
I happily left ME for XP, but the specter of Windows 7 sent me over to a Mac.
No, no, save the disc! It's HISTORY, man! :)
It is, but it’s out of here. But I still have my AppleWorks floppies, should I ever decide to fire up my Apple //c.
You have chosen wisely, little grasshopper.
I use EarthLink. 🙀
EarthLink: why not? Our options downstate for wireless are pretty limited.
