   Maybe not quite that old school.... lol. However, accessing the   
   newsgroup itself not through Google but an actual newsgroup client like   
   XNews.   
      
   However, that is an interesting idea. I have Synchronet BBS which is   
   designed to support 250 users via Telnet.   
      
   I have my own C-128 and still a C-128DCR but that is not likely not   
   going to just hand off to anyone any time soon. However, I suppose there   
   is still some C-128 computers still out in the wild.

   If you are lucky, and get your money out, you should be able to get one   
   that is in reasonable working order.   
      
   Good Luck, though.
