Another Prodigy related question:
|
| Over the next few weeks, Prodigy's two million or so members will begin
| to access the Usenet.

Do the Prodigy folk have a limit on the size of e-mail messages they can
receive? I ask because it's common practice in the newsgroup I edit
the FAQ for (rec.sport.pro-wrestling) for a newbie to get three or
four copies of the FAQ if they ask a FAQ-answered question.

Also, what about on-screen display? I haven't seen much of Prodigy, but
from what I remember, the screen width that is considerably less than 80
characters. How is my FAQ, which is formatted for a 72 character line,
going to look on a typical Prodigy screen?

Finally, from what I remember, Progidy folk can't save documents to
disk. What good is a 140KB FAQ going to do if they can't refer back to
it later?
