I remember connecting to compuserve. We had number assignments instead of handles. I also remember having to get a part time job to pay the phone bill!
I was lucky - when I was on Compuserve, my company had a support forum
on it, and we got 5 free, unlimited accounts to play with. I was
75300,1375 for many years.
In the Windows 3.1 era, there were nice GUI clients like WinCIM that
made it a little more user-friendly.
YOU were very lucky!
