The other I think was MajorBBS/Worldgroup? Sean am I right?              I think you are right about that. Galacticomm and eSoft were major       competitors. I remember an issue of BoardWatch that featured a whole article       about a speed test that Phil Becker conducted between eSoft's TBBS and       Galacticomm's MajorBBS. They tested a full 96 nodes of each and found that       TBBS outshined MBBS.               "No matter where you go, there you are!" - Buckaroo Bonzai              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A13 (Raspberry Pi)        * Origin: Cyberia BBS | Cyberia.Darktech.Org | Kingwood, TX (1:106/324)    |
