Hello Tiny,

people left bbsing behind for good. there's other things they'd
rather do.

I didn't think I'd shut my system down, but when I realized I was just running it for myself it was an easy decision.

i'm running your doors on my bbs :)

You guys are talking about history far beyond my generation ;)
I started shortly with modem to have dialup for the internet in the mid 90s.

I though 14400 was slow then... but you beat my patience by far if you stood up to 1200. I presume delay on just simple ASCII typing and text receiving was a norm then.. can't even imagine how could you share something more than simple messages at that speed.

I presume all that was before people invented files could be shared?

... Xerox Alto was the thing. Anything after we use is just a mere copy.

I got a RS-232 Adapter for my C=64 so I could get a 2400 modum.
That only raised my speed to 1200, never could get a2400 connection even after I got a 28.8k external modum.

But HEY! 1200 is four times the speed of 300.
It wasn't until I had a 486 system that I saw that modum get to its top speed.

As much as I tried to see if the C64 would do 2400 nothing I tried allowed the Commodore System to connect at 2400.
But I lived with it.
