If you REALLY wanna get techincal, AOL was originally built for
the Atari 2600 videogame system, under the title "GameLine".
It was an online service where you can download games for
personal play on the 2600. (The bad thing about it is that you
could only downbload each game once, and that was it, from
what I was told).
