Had to move that post 'caus i didn't want to de-rail Cavedudes thread, and I wanted to answer!
You pressed a button there with the tradewars and the BBS, I still got my old PCBoard BBS and can run it under DOSBox, just haven't figured out how to get the modem emulator running (DosBox). If I ever do, it will be up again - I think DosBox is the answer to all the dos programs.
Tradewars, Falcons Eye, Spider Gates, Lore, and a whole pile more. I loved those days!
I had all kinds of things running off timers from within the PCBoard and when windows 3x started, I used to run stuff from timer utilities there.
My first network had 5 PC's ; only one hard disk, they booted with floppys into DOS and a Novel Lite network (all pc's shared the same hard disk) That was how my BBS nodes ran.
I paid Clark $550.00 for a 10 node bbs program, stayed with them tell they went belly up with the internet invasion, I have the last beta that we used when they stopped, and also the web bbs they were working on.
