    No doubt! I enjoy running my vintage BBS from 1987! I'm using an Atari 8-Bi computer running OASIS BBS. Check it out if you like: yyzbbs.no-ip.org

    That is absolutely awesome to hear. Back in the late 80s/early 90s for a long time the only machines that I had were an Atari 600XL and [later] an Atari 130XE. I didn't have any of the extension boards (I think it was Robert Puff who was making those if memory serves me right), so I was limited to what I could hold on 1 180k disc (and the ramdisk on the 130XE) when I tried to set up a BBS for awhile. I was never able to do it, though, due to constraints with the phone service in that building. I've always wanted to put together another Atari 8-bit system and maybe even check out some of the ST & TT lines that I never had the money to invest in.
    Anyway I'm definitely going to check your system out; god I've got a hankering for getting another old Atari system working now. Those are the machines I first learned Basic & Assembler on. :)

    citadel is sweet groupware. as a bbs, not so good. but everything else, ver very nice.

    Just curious but are you talking about the original citadel software that DOC (I think it's Dave's Own Citadel that it stands for?) is referencing? Just curious because I've only seen DOC and I'm curious as to what the original is like.
