• BBS reviews from 1991

    I enjoyed this read from PC Mag from September 10, 1991. It had reviews of a large number of BBS systems that were available at that time. There was a bonus of e-mail and delivery systems as well.

    I was a Wildcat DOS version owner back then. Sure brings back memories! Thanks.

    Wow! Brings back a lot of memories for me. Unfortunately I wasn't running a bbs in 1991. I quit in 1990. I started up again in 1993.

    I loved the ads! Back then, it seemed like there were price points that the
    PC brands hit - they never got cheaper, just faster.
