Cottonwood BBS is back online and operational!
After much trial and error, I've got all the right
pieces put together... So dust off your old modem,
and give Cottonwood BBS a call. It's presently the
only known Commodore dial-up BBS in existence!
I apologize to anyone who tried to call before... The
VoIP line I tried to use didn't work out... So I'm
back with a new number, a regular phone line, and NO
line noise!
Call now at +1 (951)242-3593
For detailed information on the BBS, and tips on
connecting, check out the Cottonwood BBS informational
website:

Are you serious, a real-live old-school BBS? That is fantastic!
I've often fantasized about putting one back up (I ran a very small
RCPM machine in New Jersey for a while back in the 1980s while I was
in high school) but have never gotten around to it. I'd love to
recapture some of that old "BBS feel". The World Wide Web is nice,
but there's a certain magic to a BBS that the WWW just hasn't managed
to duplicate.
