Hi Deon,

That big thing called the "Internet" killed the loacl feal of BBS's.. I know
back in time, my system became a small neice ISP and expanded to 21 lines
before the BIG guys came to town and ADSL also came about...

All the BBS information out there show's that it's more of a txt based
system, and not a GUI that a user can point a mouse at and click a button.
There is alo the issue that some people think that FB/Websites are the
"Internet" and don't do anything else.
