It was the center of the BBS universe (in some people's minds, there were others who despised it). I do recall vaguely people saying they were running larger systems, but it was mostly people who wanted to be friendly to the technical talent they were getting and have support machines for companies. They would hire 18 or 20 somethings, who would be able to log on to a BBS find files, etc., but take forever to figure out how to get into some of the crap systems that were around that were not BBS like interfaces. Of course that was rare, but was around for businesses with the use case to need that sort of patch / support. http://www.bbsdays.com/people/jack_rickard/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boardwatch If someone had done such, it might have been in boardwatch if anywhere. I tossed tons of those in previous moves, so can't help with that. Plus as has been stated it would have been rare, and looking thru paper copies would be a long process and probably turn up little. hopefully if you find Boardwatch digitally somewhere, or information derived from there you can turn up some things. thanks Jim
