Monthly reminder for the Classic Macs FirstClass server. We are now up
to 70 members in our community! We have a permanent FirstClass server
with over 300gb and 9,767 files to download for classic Macs. What is
FirstClass? It's a GUI BBS for classic Macs from the 80's & 90's.  Not
a lot of them around anymore but this is the best way to get apps for
classic Macs that can not access websites easily. Just download this
one app and you get access to all the files in the repo using a GUI...

Join to get great files and make new friends. To get detailed
instructions on how to access the server go to [https://macos.retro-
os.live/index.php/firstclass/first-class-server-
access](https://macos.retro-os.live/index.php/firstclass/first-class-
server-access) and follow the steps...

If you need help getting your Mac online, I provide a CD with all the
tools and utilities you may need for $3. For more info just go here:
[https://macos.retro-os.live/FC\_CD](https://macos.retro-
os.live/FC_CD)

If you want to contribute, the Classic Mac website is at
[https://macos.retro-os.live](https://macos.retro-os.live) where you
can give feedback on the service. We also have a discord for Classic
Macs at
[https://discord.gg/VGefxXp2ds](https://discord.gg/VGefxXp2ds).

Thanks for this reminder; I've been wanting to try out First Class!!

I'm playing around w/ getting it to run correctly on
[infinitemac.org](https://infinitemac.org) \- seems promising, altho
right now my keyboard isn't typing characters correctly in the web
browser; but I was able to upload FirstClass.sit and get it installed
right there in the website; this might be a cool way to show more
users how to easily use FirstClass. ;P

pAULIE42o will be by shortly!!! w00t w00t!
