to posess even one real IP4 number and have one such thing on my

always have this complicated multistory property. Of course my cabletv
can sell me "business" service. Ugh. This is tempting but I am
strong. :-)
There are services like
http://www.noip.com/free where you can get a DNS
entry for dynamically changing IP addresses. This way you can run a BBS
without having to buy a business class account.
You could even bring up an AWS instance for about $5 a month, which is
great for doing BBS work. :)
