I used to work in Shorewood, Wisconsin, where Exec-PC was located for most
of its early existence. I was friends with Bob Mahoney. When I noticed at
one point that the MS-DOS Systems conference was taking a lot of questions
that were hardware-related rather than O/S questions, I asked him about.
His reply was that he had just created a hardware conference and I was in
charge of it. It got to be a very busy group. I miss the days of the
Exec-PC BBS -- pre-internet (mostly) it was a New Thing to me, and created
a sense of community it was hard to rival.

the
Telnet node or is it just a shell of its former self? I signed on a few
months ago and tried "subscribing" but I am still in demo mode (oh that
brings back memories!). It would be very cool if it is "fully" up and you
can dl old files/utils/apps etc.
It's up and running with all the message and file areas. I no longer
have
the email address of the sysop though. :(
I'd LOVE to get a copy of that BBS before it goes away.
