Excaliber

Also listed as: Excalibur BBS

"Excalibur BBS began March 11, 1986 running on an Atari 800 w/twin
Floppy drives and a 1200 baud modem using Oasis 4.1 BBS Software.
It evolved to an IBM system in November of 1990, running VBBS on a
286-20mhz and using DesqView multitasking software to enable 3
concurrent nodes on a single system with at the time a huge 120meg
harddrive for storage. Over the course of the next ten years, it
continued to evolve to newer systems. By 1996 however, users
logging in had dropped from its high's of 45-60 per day, to only
1-2 per day. The BBS's last caller was logged on April 10th of
2000, even though it remained available for another year, it
recieved no calls. I retired the BBS and turned the last remaining
line into a fax line in June of 2001. Over the years, I've had
calls from as far away as Australia, Japan, and all parts of
Europe. The script capability of VBBS allowed me to create scripts
that became popular with VBBS sysops worldwide, whom would call in
just to download my packages. Thanks for having a site dedicated
to the memory of all these great BBS's, the true forerunners of
the Internet should always be remembered." - Tony Talarigo
