I had a Mac II VX at that time and a borrowed 2400 modem and i called Stockholm from Malmo, and at that time we didn't have flatrate calling in Sweden so the bills grew quite expensive. I could go on and on and on telling about this but i'll stop by sayinng that the Mac at that time had very few apps for setting up bbs- es or simple Fidonet point programs for fetching forums and so on.
