AOL was the company created by the combination of Applelink and some
Commodore BBS, most likely the QuantumLink you mentioned. Steve Case was
CEO of the Commodore BBS and became CEO of AOL. For quite some time,
about half of AOL's subscribers were Apple II and Mac users. Of course,
AOL discontinued Apple II support quite some time ago (I know some guys
who are still sour about this).
I better stop typing now, otherwise I'll get off on a rant about how AOL
is always dropping services on the sly and backstabbing their customers.
