"BBS Started with a Imsai 8080. Intel 8080 at 2 MHz. Then later at
Z80 at a blazing 4 MHz. Then later to a 8086 CPU. so we could run
CPM/86. (precursor to MSDOS) (All S100). The first BBS software
was something in BASIC. Highly modified. First speed was 300 baud.
I think it was 1978 or so. Then on to 600 baud. (A S100 board that
could do 600) Then standard 1200 and later 2400 and 9600 baud.
(AT&T External modem.) Then later to 56K etc. The BBS moved to a
Processor Technology SOL. Then to a Northstar Horizon. (S100) with
Micropolis drives. (5 1/4 100TPI!) All floppy based. Then later
with a 5 Meg hard drive. Then later to a IBM 8088 based system.
Then 80186 based. etc. Basic BBS I wrote then to CBBS and RBBS and
WildCat software. Turned off in 1996 when I closed my computer
shop.(1976 to 1996 Online Computers.) (and this neat thing called
the Internet came along.)" - Dave Austin (co-sysops were Duane
Stofan and Jake Sanderson.)
