Our BBS suffered a crash this evening; we lost the entire message base as a result – over 2000 messages. :^( We also lost all the user records – so, if you call, you'll have to re-log in and setup a new account. There were no problems with the library, so we have all the files (thank goodness for that!) This is *very* unfortunate, however, it was due to happen soon "on-purpose", because as soon as 2.0 comes out in ROM (we think only a few weeks away!) we're changing to a new BBS system, and that would have nuked everything but the files, which we would move. Anyway, that's the situation. Ben Amateur Radio Callsign is A A 7 A S

Hi Ben Just curious as to what BBS software you are changing to. I run a BBS in Southern CA. for musicians on an Amiga 2000 and really like the software I am now using. It's called DLG (formally Dialog) Professional and it's got some amazing features. You owe it to yourself to check this software out before you firm up your decision. Good luck with the 'new' board 🙂 Regards, Allen – Cole Place Music Board (714) 827-3265

Could you tell me how to get info on Steve Tibbet's BBX? I'm curious about features.

best thing I can say is talk to Steve – I think he is currently active on portal.

BBX is a nice board, that's for sure. Steve's done a good job with it. However, you might be interested in knowing that DLG is readying a module that will allow you to run an online store. I believe they are looking for beta testers now. Good luck with whatever you decide on. Regards, Allen – Cole Place Music Board (714) 827-3265
