Important — Vintage Collectible Software The original Prodigy online service is no longer available. This kit is being offered as vintage computer software, documentation, and memorabilia. The original Prodigy network service cannot be accessed. A Piece of Early Online History
Before the modern World Wide Web became commonplace, services such as Prodigy introduced home-computer users to many of the activities that would later become everyday parts of the Internet.
The original packaging advertises features including travel reservations, communications, games, shopping, financial information, educational content, news, weather, and sports — making this kit a great snapshot of how online computing was marketed to consumers during that period.
