I remember qemm and deskview...multitasking. maybe run a 2nd line as
paid....your paid membership callers get access to that line. First line is
free....
Eventually I used the second line as my internet line. I graduated high school
in 1995....same year we got dialup internet.

Empire seems to ring a bell. It’s been over 30 years so kind of hazy and most
of the time spent was the middle of the night. It’s amazing how much less
sleep I used to need apparently. From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> On Behalf

too much time wasted, leagon of the red dragon (lord) was huge back then, or
trade wars… Anyone into hardware these days wouldn’t even understand how basic
stuff was, a few hundred MB HDD was nearly a grand, to get lots of files
online for download cd changers would be used, pretty cool how it all worked.

What did you run the BBS on? Our biggest local BBS ran on an Amiga 2000 with
24 modems but I don’t remember much else about it. I was one of the sysops for
a while………. Best part of it was the games. The Risk type game was pretty much
determined by whoever got in first after Midnight (when you could make the
moves for the day) who knew what they were doing. From: AF

Ok let me rephrase. Has anyone used Mikrotik as a BMU as an LNS server to
connect to another provider's LAC server. With powercode managing the leases.
Just curious if it can be done.
