 Av> this takes me back to the same days using Pine for email and Tin for
 Av> Usenet etc... I recall using ytalk (I think) to chat with someone in the
 Av> USA at a St Louis university using the Internet... this was circa
 Av> 1994/1995 I think.

ytalk... we had the Apple User club BBS back then, weirdly running on a 486
with an early Slak install. We had a 4 way ytalk chat with the admin guys that
really new what they were doing.  While the GF of the time and myself, still
had training wheels on, we just happened to be hosting the hardware.
Probably a few years earlier though, 92/93 maybe.

Back then there was no way to host a multiline dialup system on a Mac. AU/X
didn't support PPP.  Apple was dropping, and there was no software for MacOS
of the age either.
