    spending a lot of time on telnet BBS' in the past couple of
    years though, and it's a great way to put vintage
    computers to use (I have a number of them setup for
    use : http://is.gd/Evgcl1).

    Hello Blake,

    A whole room dedicated for this.. amazing. Well organized. Impressive.


    I setup a page on my blog that is a kind-of guide for people
    wanting to give BBSing a shot (hopefully) and also links to
    some of the BBS adventures that
    I've documented online : https://bytecellar.com/bbsing/

    Your photo collection is amazing. It is quite an extensive chronicle of your collection and activities.

    I really liked the Ipad w/keyboard and the screenshot of Black Flag BBS:

    "fidoNet is alive, even if you say no."

    Many thanks, August. It is fun to put the vintage systems through their
    paces. I find BBSing on them is an excellent way to get sometime on various different machines. I am currently logged in on my Amiga 2000 '020 runnning Term 4.8. Ethernet on this machine and the '020 make it a pretty great BBS driver.

    Latest is I'm trying to get a CoCo 3 online. I have a 512K unit and a modern MPI that has 2 slots, but for some reason the RS-232 cart is not being seen
    my the terminal program (Twilight Term). Will get it eventually... :-)
