Ted: I always felt that in it's prime AOL could have taken down the Windows monopoly. I thought if you could have turned the popular & familiar AOL online GUI into an OS, it would have been installed ion most of the subscribers' machines - especially because with them as subscribers you could make the AOL OS free with a commitment to subscribe. I always thought to the end user, the AOL GUI was practically an OS in that once they were logged in they almost never left the AOL software. Was that ever considered?
