Damn, Sam, you ask the darnedest questions. Had to fire up my laptop to see
what version of Compuserve I had on that. I have Compuserve 4.0.1 on that
and I can access Compuserve with it at no additional charge. And I just
accessed the internet thru it (It uses IE for internet access). (Went to
Arachne's home page.) But, I haven't really tried to use Arachne thru it as
I do with Classic Compuserve. I don't have Compuserve 2000, so I can't
comment on that. I believe that all of the Compuserve versions greater than
2.??? require windoze to operate.
Compuserve 2000 has some access numbers different from Compuserve Classic.
When I looked at the Compuserve 2000 numbers, I believe that they said that
those numbers were set up for V90 communication. The number that I am using
for Compuserve 4.0.1 is the same as I use for Compuserve Classic.
Hope this answers your questions.
