We are a community of about a thousand people scattered around
the US (a few outside) who have reason to share ideas and
brainstorm together. An obvious application for a computer
bulletin board system. I am a neophyte in the area.
I have a computer with reasonable disk resources, msdos, may
have a 1200 baud modem.
How do I find out:
a) What bulletin board software makes the most sense? Where
do I get it?
b) Details like what kind of modem makes sense now. My maybe
is a five year old Qbie that may no longer have a manual.
c) Should this have been posted somewhere else?
Do I have to shut the board down to use the computer? (I know, silly
question for an msdos user to ask - is there a cheap way to get
enough Unix on this 386 to let it do two things at once?)
