Everyone,
We've had various talk / starts / stops about an authentic-ish dial-up BBS through the years. Now it is finally coming true.
<snip>
People can also telnet in directly to the PC thanks to our LTE modem, or they can call in remotely once we buy a GSM SIM card (to be considered after the main system is up and running).
Since, there is no way in hell I'm going to be able to make it to Jersey for this, unless someone buys me a plane ticket, I'd love to be able to participate by telnetting into the BBS with my Atari 800. For many of the early home-micros, a 40 column layout would be ideal. Don't know if that's possible along side with an 80 col layout. All I know is that the 40 col display gets super goofy on some boards. Anyway, just my $0.02, it's super exciting news regardless!! --Jason
