pretty much if you use AOL you've been owned by AOL-time-warner's marketing department.
...and no Rain, it's not me dressed up in drag...
I wasn't going to say anything. I promised I wouldn't do anymore jokes about that. However, since you brought it up, you must admit there is a bit of a resemblance.
I would suggest that this fear of being left out (and left behind, technologically speaking) is one of the reasons for Window's success, too.
But atleast there's somewhat of a barrier between operating systems. People running Mac0S, BeOS, Linux, etc. can't run windows stuff unless it's ported. AOL instant messager means that ANYONE with ANY internet connection can talk to AOL users.
