#Running a BBS w/ A2000
Hi Tom,
Thanks for the info. $15 every 3 months isn't too bad! How long does it take a
message to get from a BBS to an Internet address? I suppose it could take at
the most 48hrs? Or is it even longer than that? I guess it depends how many
local BBS get the msg before it finally gets on the Internet.
I have thought about providing Internet access. I started looking for
suppliers here, and found only two. One of them is full, and isn't accepting
any new applicants, and the other has outrageous prices. I have heard that for
$300/month, I can have a connection to the Internet. You know, the
@something.here would be my own computer. But, I doubt I could handle it with
an Amiga. At least I don't think I could, does anybody know? I would have to
handle something like 100 accounts and 10 phone lines. All of them connected to
the Internet somehow. I'm not even sure how that would work. Anyways, I
suppose I would need something more like a VAX.
BTW, what is UUCP? I've seen it around before, but don't really know what it
is.
Thanks again for your help.
Paul
