    EV> write posts on your BBS   
      
     It was the only way he could do it. Plus, with the setup to the   
   landline BBS, one didn't have to worry about hard drive viruses.

     I knew a former Sysop who had no idea what the AUTOEXEC.BAT and   
   CONFIG.SYS files were for!! Now, they're AUTOEXEC.NT and CONFIG.NT   
   but I don't think much goes in them...yet, I'd have to look to be   
   sure.
