You're correct. News and Observer (nando.net I think) was a daily visit for me back in the mid 90's. It was the first one I found which provided a full newspaper without being hidden in a walled garden and without needing monthly fees. AP & Reuters were available online but locked behind a very expensive paywall.
Nando was the first time I read of breaking news online. The story on the Oklahoma City bombing jolted me awake one morning. Reading Nando over coffee on my tiny 12 inch screen of a Macintosh LC.
I've often wondered if they could have leveraged their very early lead into something else.
