In that case, it would be interesting to see if the MS-DOS systems:
Hardware conference is still there. It was started at my suggestion and Bob
made me run it.
Just tried it. Putty times out and doesn't connect.

Does anyone on the list have the contact email

You want to contact the
Exec-PC BBS? Via dial-up? Is that still around? I
thought they converted to an ISP decades ago and pulled the plug on the BBS.
The sysop at time was Bob Mahoney. I used to know him when I worked in
Shorewood. I think he sold the business.
The bbs is telnet only now at
bbs.execpc.com. One of the former employees
took the machines home and set it back up and opened it up for free to
anyone that cared to log in. The file areas are full of jewels that I
haven't even begun to mine yet. :)
I think his name is Curt, but I'm not sure.
