Wow, BBS days.... I started on a Commodore 64 running a Punter BBS from a floppy, then expanded with some old PET Computer IEEE Floppies, then added the MSD Dual Drive and finally ended up with the LT. Kernal Hard Drives . 20 MB for 1100.00 what a bargain. lol. I ported over games from the CNET BBS and had 14 overlays that compiled in Basic. It took 3 hours on the C-64. I then got a C-128 and could compile it blind in 90 minutes. I say Blind because I entered a poke to let me compile it on the C-128 but didn't get to see the prompt screens and had to key it in blind. I had done it so many times, I knew what to put...
After some years, I switched to Wildcat BBS from Mustang Software and ran it on 3 computers with 3 phone lines. I was also an Echomail Hub and used FrontDoor as my forwarding program and used QuickBBS to run the ecohmail forums on.
Those were the days... Get an e-mail message to the west coast in 2 days...
It was fun though...
