Nobody would ever access it. You guys, most of you don't have landlines. And there would still be long distance charges.
A telnetabble BBS is in the queue of things to do. It will be a while, but it will definitely happen. I'd like to have it hosted not on my own PC, as I frequently "suspend to disk" my computer to save one millionth of a percent of a penny.
At that point, I would like to break free of this whole Jolt Country naming scheme. We'll totally call it something else and have a different theme. I'll still run this place, but there will be a tiny nook off the coast of nowhere that search engines can't index ... that's the magic of telnet! Maybe that's what we should call it. "The Magic of Telnet."
I like the idea of Apple II BBS software, only I wouldn't want to sign One of the Bruces up for work, and I honestly don't know the first thing about navigating an Apple II OS (whereas with a PC running emulated DOS, I do). I'm not against it, of course: the Apple II was a fine computer system, and everyone who is reasonable liked it.
