The DeadZone BBS
================

"The first and second incarnations of The DeadZone were launched
when I was in high school. Originally, purchased my BBS software
from Randy Prothero who ran the RCI BBS in Merrimack, NH. (I once
asked Randy what RCI stood for, he said "Really Cool Initials"
although later he told me "Randy's Computer Incorporated." Never
did know which was right.) The DeadZone BBS ran from a Commodore
64 with a 1541 hard drive. As the board grew, the 1541 was
inadequate for the upload/download system so I bought a 1581
floppy drive which offered a cool meg of storage. (Which was darn
big back then.) I also was given Ken Beinvenue's (aka Uncle
Hogram's) old Color 64 software (Which he ran the Center Of
Eternity BBS from) as he had recently upgraded to an IBM PC and
didn't need the license anymore. In the spring of 1990 I took the
BBS offline for a six month hiatus knowing I would be off to
college in a couple months, where it got a new phone number." -
