CACTUS PATCH
============

Also listed as: The Cactus Patch TBBS

"This BBS originally started out with software written by myself
on a TRS-80 Model I at 110-300 baud. The 1st commercial BBS
software used was the InfoEx-80 Software, Then we put the Greene
Machine online. Finally after looking over the TBBS software and
its abilities in 1984 we went to the TBBS software because of its
lightening speed. Our TRS-80 Model III at the time started to
fail. We then switched to the TBBS-PC software and became a beta
test site for the TBBS software. Sometime in 1986 we started
testing the MultiLine TBBS software. This labor of love lasted
until the great interest of the InterNet struck. People had a hard
time supporting the local hobbiest BBS' but they surely had no
problem migrating to the InterNet. Finally, after a thunderstorm
came through the area, the CPTBBS' computer would not come back
up. With no support, after 21yrs, September of 2001 the Cactus
Patch TBBS surrendered its telephone lines. There were a great
number of super BBS Sysops around the country. In 1988 Phil Becker
had the 1st TUG (TBBS User's Group) converge on a motel in the
Denver area. It was a power charged meeting of very knowledgable
people..." - Larry Wall CPTBBS - Sysop -RET
