High Voltage BBS! ================= "High Voltage BBS!, was started in 1986. I was 15 years old. Originally using a commodore 128 with a 300 baud modem. Over the years I saved money from working and kept upgrading as much as I could afford. Computer equipment was outrageously expensive back then. I eventually upgraded to a Radio Shack 8086 processor computer, then 80286, 80386, and then finally a 80486 processor computer. I was using Wildcat BBS with windows DOS and Quarterdeck's Desqview and QEMM programs which allowed me to run multiple nodes. In the final years of High Voltage BBS!, I was running 3 nodes, lots of registered online games, many chat boards, utilized two different relay email systems, and had a huge user base. It was a great learning experience and made many friends with people all over the world as well as the local other BBS sysops. Eventually private BBS's lost user interests due to AOL, Prodigy, and Compuserve. Even though all three of those systems were extremely expensive and charged by the minute for most features!!!" - Steve Basciano Phone : 215-623-8505 Place : Lansdowne, PA Years : 1986 - 1992 Sysop : Steve Basciano Software: Wildcat!
