More BBS stuff...

The discussion lately on BBS sysops and software got me thinking about that topic and looking at stuff I hadn't thought about in years. In my own archvies I found old versions of Searchlight, QuickBBS and the non-FOSSIL version of GT Power. Thankfully, my archive of QuickBBS included my old setup and Ray Gwinn's X00 FOSSIL driver and I was able to get it running under VPC enough to play around with it. Last night, a guy in Texas sent me the FOSSIL version of GT Power, which is what I used for my Model 2000. He told me of his experience running a Model 2000 under OPUS and then GT Power. Now I had never tried running OPUS on that machine but had played with it on standard XT clones. This caused me to go out and do a little search for some information on what happened to OPUS. For those of you interested in a fairly full-featured BBS program capable of running on machines such as the DEC Rainbow, Zenith Z-100, TRS-80 Model 2000, and Sanyo 550, check out the following URL, 'The Worldwide OPUS consortium': http://www.sentry.org/~trev/opus/ Jeff -- Home of the TRS-80 Model 2000 FAQ File http://www.cchaven.com http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/lakes/6757
