Digital Insanity
================

Also listed as: The Matrix

"The original matrix bbs was run out of my mothers house 10pm -
3pm nightly. It was run on a 486dx/50 with 8mb ram and a 110mb
hard drive. At one point it had two lines, one being dedicated and
the other being a the main phone line coming into the house. Then
I moved to my fathers house in louisville, OH and the board was
renamed to digital insanity and the number was 330-875-2045 on one
of the two lines it had at that location. Later I changed the
software to vbbs and redid all the ansi graphics. At some point a
name change occured and it became mayhem and then when I moved to
va it became digital insanity again. Each time the board changed
names I changed names with it.
"The actual bulletin board itself was primarily messages, text
files, and doors as far as the public was concerned. A few people
(Gatlin, Tsunami, etc) had further access to the system where
various items of questionable legality were stored. The community
in stark county was *great*. I miss alot of the guys from back
then, some of my best computing memories were at 3am bs'ing around
with other sysops and playing door games with em.
"Ironically my bbs involvement later around 1996 it got me one of
my first non-contract technical jobs at an ISP... i quite
literally knew *everyone* that worked there from the bulletin
boards in the area and had helped two of the admins to setup
networking software with their bulletin board systems. Fast
forward to 2005 and I started at a new job as a networking/systems
guy and find out my boss and I had chatted frequently after the
board moved to louisville... so in one way or another my bulletin
board experience have greatly shaped my career in computers and
let me meet alot of great people." - Fastjack
