My girlfriend, who goes by "The Vixen DeVaxen," might know a few!
#Easter Egg Hunt
Message #20960
I am writing a book listing "Easter Eggs." I'd be sincerely grateful for any contributions you might be able to make. What are Easter Eggs? Easter Eggs are little undocumented "goodies" that programmers hide in their programs. For example: In a beta version of "HAL," a Lotus 1-2-3 add-in for…
Makes sense to me. Let's see, a Nintendo costs $100? So IBM should charge… $7,000. Such a deal!
Well, I don't think she'd want to buy Paragon. The author of 4D is letting her modify the source code, and she's pretty partial to it. She has the BBS up and running under 4D, and to re-do all the work she's put into it… Well, I'm starting to feel…

Looking for Mr. GoodBBS
Message #94858
I'm shopping around for a BBS for my humble little Amiga. I would like something with a decent message base (since I intend my BBS to be mostly message-oriented)…I also would like it to be customized easily (and yet better, with Arrex support) so I can make my BBS look…
