Thats more like my very first pooty.... a II+ with 48k and one single sided
floppy... those were the days.. By the time I thought about firing up a BBS
though, I was at a IIgs, and I didn't want to dedicate that to the BBS and
lose use of it.

Enter the PC, at the time it was a cheaper proposition. It could do the grunt
work and in many ways was better suited to it, while I could keep the GS as
my daily compute.
