you reminded me of mine; I could afford only one HD, so I had it in one machine, then I had four other machines I put together from parts people donated to me for memberships; these had floppys - not like your Atari 120.00 shoe-box sized floppy, these were the 720 "floppys of the future" ( I had Atari too, hehe!). They were all 286 but the "server" (with the "cutting edge"20 meg HD) was a 386, the network was a Novell Lite network. I actually made a 600.00 loan so I could buy a five node PCBoard ( I had convinced my wife and myself I was on to something big!). Well, never got rich (as usual), but had a ton of fun trying, and those games were great, we lived for those silly old door games. Since games like FE were played by a number of turns daily, the BBS would light up every day at midnight with disparate players coming in to take there turns.
