Quantum Link didn’t actually serve what we would now consider a Webpage.

Upon selecting a command from the keyboard, Qlink would send a command back to your computer to load a page to your monitor from your 5 1/4” floppy drive.

The only part of Qlink which was actually real time was “People Connection” (chatrooms) for which you were charged a fee by the minute.

The old school part comes from C-64s being 8-bit computers. If you ran Qlink software on a C-128, it would run as a C-64.

Yeah and I’m glad that’s changed. The computer became for families when I was growing up in the 90’s what the TV became for my parents’ generation or radio for grandparents.
