   i wonder why the BBSes with their inflexible 80x24 screen, ridiculous login   
   and registration procedures an terrible user interfaces still exist. TUI   
   doesn't mean it has to suck.   
      
   If you are a new user to the system, type "New" now.   
   Otherwise, enter your user name or number now.   
      
   Enter User Name or Number or 'New' or 'Guest'
