Obviously a Commie board. :)Yeah, we had some pretty elaborate stuff as well, but we detected ANSI enabled and if they turned that off, straight text "graphics" at them. Ran mine on a TI-99/4A originally (on a dare, nobody wanted to believe it could be done) ... eventually had to get some 8088's to feed the modem pool with QDOS and somethingDESK to "multitask" ... ah the things we take for granted these days ... *AND* speak ill of Al Gore who eliminated the long distance charges and allowed the "great unwashed" to spread "send this to everyone on your mailing list" and calling each other asshats. Had I only KNOWN what I was getting myself into years ago, I'd go back to calling 900 numbers. Heh. |
