>What is a BBS?
Yikes. My first reaction was this must be a joke. Someone on this list
doesn't know what a BBS is.
But then I realized, this is a list for classic computers, with the
definition of classic being older than 10 years. By 1993 the internet was
on a solid growth, and BBSs were already hard to find.
Kind of scary that some of the people that might just be getting into
this "lifestyle" (now that we have determined it is a lifestyle) honestly
may not know what a BBS is. Nor might they know anything about much that
predates the existance of Windows and the Mac OS.
Hopefully, we can welcome the new people, and educate them to what they
have missed out on... while keeping the list from degrading into a
glorified Windows 95 tech support forum.
